Technically this is pretty simple by means of the Mailman
subject_prefix feature. I personally do not like all subject lines
written by users of the list cluttered with some prefix text. But, if
other members of the list also express their demand for this feature
and there's no overly resistance voiced I would enable it
nevertheless.
