           Summary: Gmail puts wrong subject in replies
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScript
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: dvirasoro at mac.com


(note: I am not sure if this is a problem with webkit or google, but it does
work fine in Safari 2.0.3, whereas I have problems with the Webkit from 23rd
Feb)

When you click reply to a message in Gmail, it adds "Re: " to the subject, even
if there is one already. A short conversation can end up with a subject like
"Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: subject here".

Now I know this is a really minor quirk but it does work with Safari 2.0.3 so I
guess it may be the latest webkit misbehaving somewhere, and that may have more
serious results.

Note that because Gmail structures your emails in threads, you need to activly
check the subject: eg. after clicking on reply, click on "Edit subject" which
will show the subject field. There you can see the current subject.
