JRA-3609 gets at yet another improvement I'd like to see in Jira,
which is the ability to customize subject-line for each comment added
to an issue.

EG I would have really liked to use the comment 'pathological GC
behavior' for this post:

    
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2075?focusedCommentId=12782069&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_12782069

I posted the request to the Jira forums, here:

  http://forums.atlassian.com/thread.jspa?threadID=39074&tstart=0

But, hideously (thanks to Gmail's overly simplistic thread grouping),
JRA-3609 is completely at odds with fixing Gmail to group the Jira
mails correctly.  Sigh.
