It's a waste of 14 characters if it's [django-users], and 7 as [django], now, when you get people with broken mail clients that also keep prepending Re: then those 14 characters become very important - my terminal is usually only about 80 characters long, most of the time I can only see around 20/25 characters of the subject line, I'd really rather that they were all relevant than to lose them to an unneeded prefix.
