Why don't we all check to see if there is an RFC for this and see what it

I tend to agree with razak.
Mailing lists on the whole tend to include the listname in the subject.
While I dont sort my mail like that, I do like to know if a mail is from a
list or not.. Which is easily done with the subject tags.
