    Hmm. Maybe just space them out. That's what networking already does,
    ie you'll see things like

    [PATCH net-next v3 0/5] patch description here

    [PATCH net] some-patch-description

    in subject lines. Maybe we can just encourage that format in general.

    And yes, I agree, for when the targets are obvious, this clearly isn't
    needed. And often they are.

    So this would still likely be the exception rather than the rule, but
    it would be a lot more obvious than hiding a one-liner commentary deep
    in the middle of the email.
