   @developer-ravi-03 Thank you. This is more complicated than it appears (and 
more complicated than #449) because it depends how we resolve #434, and we need 
to choose a syntax.  I'm still surprised that the current design is so 
unintuitive, and I'm starting to think that we should just show the substituted 
version in the actual vote form, but remind the user that they can always edit 
the template in the release policy interface. Also I found a bug: the release 
checklist needs to be substituted before it gets substituted into an email 
body. I've filed this as #451.
   
   Therefore I think the correct resolution to this issue is actually to allow 
email subjects to be templated, but to add this as a release policy field just 
before the current vote email subject field. The same must go for announcements 
emails too, so a release policy field needs to be added for that. The user 
should be told in a description, most likely, that the email can be edited "for 
this and future releases" by using the field in the release policy, with an 
appropriate link to the release policy field. That will no doubt require 
`Widget.CUSTOM` to be used. When we created this issue we thought it was a 
"good first issue" (or second issue in this case!) because we figured we would 
be using a similar interface to the current field, but I think perhaps it is a 
little more advanced than that now. What do you think?
