Is it worth proposing some additional tags in the CHAT:, TECH:, USAGE:
series for maybe ROMANCE:, SLAVIC:, LOGLANG:, ENGELANG: and/or similar
topics?
I can foresee some disasterous Subject lines like "Fwd: Re: [CONLANG] Re:
USAGE: SLAVIC: ENGELANG: Depalatializio", but sóme kind of more-complex
tagging scheme might be implementable with enough brainpower. I'd
recommend definition by a benevolent dictatorship rather than a committee,
though.
