Erg -- this strikes me as a bad thing. If you can be *very* specific, 
that's good -- I was thinking along the lines of one suggestion I made 
for Bugzilla, viz "[Bug 12345]", great, but I don't think spammers are 
going to really ever pick that up. On the other hand, just the 
appearance of square brackets in the subject? -0.1, maybe.
