Sorry, Norm, it's NOT that clear-cut:

1. Blank message window.

2. Type a couple of words in the message area, making sure not to type 
a carriage return or any other character that would get blamed.

3. Highlight and drag to subject line. Heck, drag same from BBEdit with 
show-invisibles on just to be sure there is no carriage return.

4. Save as draft, send to yourself, whatever.

5. I consistently do not get the dragged subject saved, as Macintosh 
Lady described [OSX 10.2.6/Mail 1.2.5] and have had this problem 
through every iteration of Mail to date.

There is a problem with this. Being so dismissive really isn't helpful.
