+
+I would far prefer an interface of “place as many BE commands as you
+like at the top of the message body, ending with an optional terminator
+command, and they will each be executed in turn”.
+
+This would allow a single message to perform a batch of BE commands that
+are related, instead of requiring to send each command in a separate
+message.
+
+It would also leave the subject field free for something more
+descriptive. The subject field could also be used as the summary field
+of newly-created bug reports. With a terminator command, this would
+allow the message to be sent both to BE and to some other recipient
+(e.g. a mailing list) explaining the change.
+
+Have a look at the email interface of the Debian BTS for an example
+<URL:http://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-request>.
