Thanks for this interesting discussion. While waiting for the Note
option, I started modifyng the subject of a bunch of emails, and I find
quite useful, especially in the situation described by Benny (and
others). I understand the caveats, but for me, so far, the advantages
prevail over the disadvantages.

I have one long-term and pretty regular correspondent who nearly
always uses terrible subjects (e.g., "question") and has other sort
of horrible email habits, like responding to existing threads with
new messages with new subjects.
Seems like for many people, applying a descriptive tag to the
discussion might be easier than force-applying a change of subject
line to an extended thread.
This seems to be a much better solution. It's much more flexible and
comprehensive than messing around with email subject lines.
Especially as it seems like your friend will figure out how to break
any scheme you invent to "organise" them. You can archive/copy email
to specific mailboxes too.
I can see the usefulness of being able to tag messages, but that
doesn't solve the problems for which being able to edit a received
message is a solution.
