Add a new option to git-format-patch, entitled --subject-prefix that allows
control of the subject prefix '[PATCH]'. Using this option, the text 'PATCH' is
replaced with whatever input is provided to the option. This allows easily
generating patches like '[PATCH 2.6.21-rc3]' or properly numbered series like
'[-mm3 PATCH N/M]'.

I suspect this is a job for send-email, not format-patch. List?
Surely though, send-email is simply a helper for sending patches generated
by format-patch? Is there any reason to deny the ability to set the
prefix to those who don't use send-email but do use format-patch?
(Personally I found send-email to be cumbersome and confusing, so I've
stopped using it ...)
It's format-patch that applies the current "[PATCH]" prefix anyway ...
