When you edit a post on the forum, the "subject" field is blanked out instead of retaining the previous subject. 99% of the times this isn't an issue, because almost nobody fills in the subject field for individual posts, but if you edit the first post of a thread, the one that holds the thread title, it might be a problem because one has to rewrite the title.

This was a change I made recently to avoid quoted replies having "Re: whatever" subjects. This side effect is annoying, but I won't be able to work on it until next year :(

This is now fixed.
