Exactly.
I sorted lists for years using subjects and sender.
List-Id: header is best way of sorting lists.

Thing is that subject lines that are too long are problem with new lists
and for older ones, someone was clever enough to put oi instead of
Openindiana etc.

I think same goes for Illumos mailing lists: They have too long subjects
with no reason actually.

I am not sure who is administering mailing list. But I think question of
shorting subjects asks for an answer.
