There's no "dev", "devel" or "development" in the name. It will be
bothered by users.
I'd agree.

It's annoying to me.
Actually, it's more than mere annoyance. On a small screen device
(anyone around here got one of those?), a lengthy [list] prefix takes
up a substantial chunk of space, meaning that the actual subject line
itself is obscured.
So I'd prefer them to be off, but I'd happy with a short prefix, too.
(The List-* headers are well worth looking at for those of us writing
email clients.)
