[on specifying the default subject for messages in the TITLE

For the record, i support the use of TITLE.

Already present in Wilbur, the TITLE attribute for an anchor
describes the target of the link, and it is reasonable for
it to describe a "mailto:" link as well (effectively, it
describes the message you send).  It is clearly the best
existing place for this information, and breaks nothing.
