%  I am strictly against any subject-mangling, no matter for what reasons.

For mailing lists, I am, too.  For mail that gets sent to the moderator
to await approval, such a Subject: is not inappropriate.  The mutt-users
list, for instance, does this.  To wit:

Now, this may not be the *best* way to handle moderator mail, but it
certainly is unrelated to the list mail itself.
