[I] Allow substitution variables to be used in email subjects (tooling-trusted-releases)
sbp opened a new issue, #363:
URL: https://github.com/apache/tooling-trusted-releases/issues/363
Currently we only allow them in bodies. We should perhaps use `{NAME}` as the syntax instead of `[NAME]` too, because the latter is often used as a prefix in email subjects.

Thanks for the detailed explanation, that makes sense.
I agree that simply templating the existing subject field might be unintuitive,
and that introducing a dedicated release policy field for templated subjects
(and announcements) sounds like a cleaner approach.
Before I proceed further, I just want to confirm:
- Should this issue now focus on the release policy / UI change (new templated subject fields),
rather than extending the current subject field logic?
- And would you prefer that this issue wait until #451 is resolved,
or should I explore a partial approach or design proposal first?
Happy to follow your preferred direction here.

@developer-ravi-03 Thank you. This is more complicated than it appears (and more complicated than #449) because it depends how we resolve #434, and we need to choose a syntax. I'm still surprised that the current design is so unintuitive, and I'm starting to think that we should just show the substituted version in the actual vote form, but remind the user that they can always edit the template in the release policy interface. Also I found a bug: the release checklist needs to be substituted before it gets substituted into an email body. I've filed this as #451.
Therefore I think the correct resolution to this issue is actually to allow email subjects to be templated, but to add this as a release policy field just before the current vote email subject field. The same must go for announcements emails too, so a release policy field needs to be added for that. The user should be told in a description, most likely, that the email can be edited "for this and future releases" by using the field in the release policy, with an appropriate link to the release policy field. That will no doubt require `Widget.CUSTOM` to be used. When we created this issue we thought it was a "good first issue" (or second issue in this case!) because we figured we would be using a similar interface to the current field, but I think perhaps it is a little more advanced than that now. What do you think?

Sean and I are discussing a similar. proper refactoring here. I appreciate your efforts, but I think I am going to remove the `good first issue` label. There are a number of steps needed to add to the project and committee policy pages. You can watch and learn these. While not as interesting #364 would be a good, focused way to contribute.

A kind of successor to #295.

Hi, I’d like to work on this issue if it’s okay.
I’ll start by exploring how substitutions are currently handled in email bodies
and extend the same logic to email subjects.

Or even shell style as `${NAME}`.
