I see this more as: If you had 2 fields: General subject line Change description Would I divide "General subject line" into multiple fields even though there was no technical necissity to do so at the moment, but would provide for cleaner code to allow for features to possibly be more easily added in the future? hmm tough one, as I really like clean code, but I think I would leave it as is for now since splitting the General subject line field using a perl expression seems feasible and easy to do should the need arise in the future.
