I'm not arguing for truncating subjects.

However, I'm arguing against changing a 10 years old default value
without a strong reason. Default value annoys some users. Point taken.
But changing it might also annoy some users, possibly, at least, the
person that chose it in the first place, or users that do not like
arbitrary long links.

Truncation, an its related variable, are now documented in the manual.
The bothering is somewhat very limited.
