Thanks for the information. I think that this would be a very sensible feature.

Perhaps something could also be done about what I suspect to be the reason for my classifying the question incorrectly: I'm absolutely sure that I changed the subject fields to the correct ones, clicked on "preview" (or whatever it is called), spotted some typos and went back (maybe via the browser's "back" button").
