Very much +1. Part of the trouble is that Gmail and similar clients don't
routinely show you the Subject: line to make it easy to edit it; you have
to take affirmative action when you want to change the subject matter.

Perhaps we should take a leaf from 1980s Rob Pike, and
just automatically change every message to be
Subject: The content of this message
(There is an actual story behind that, but I'll leave it
to Rob to tell.)
