Just a reminder that adding things to the subject line can sometimes
be an accessibility issue because they take up horizontal real estate,
which can make subject headers truncate so much that there is no
useful information left.  For example, "Re: [magit] A question for
magit developers ab".  This occurs frequently with large fonts.  It
also happens with small devices and for people who put two windows
side by side, but those are not as frequently accessibility issues.

Subject lines can often be modified at the client level, as all of the
information necessary is in the headers.  For example, I do so in
gmail using labels.

Note: I remind people about accessibility because most people do not
think about it until it affects them personally.  That is why it has
to be built into the way we design things as a matter of course.
