Creating nonobvious technical behavior to work around lack of awareness
of expectations in specific (sub)cultures is usually not a good idea.

There are legit cases when to change the subject and keep the thread,
e.g. when splitting out via "Some subaspect [was: Re: Some aspect]".

Just because I wrote all in capital letters and I might not know that
it implies shouting does not mean software should convert everything to
non-capital letters. There are still legit use cases for shouting. ;)

Cheers,
