You can take it Greg :) I claimed because nobody else had done it and maybe I would have needed it for grabbing from some firewire cam.

Instead, start a new email. When you choose to reply, your mail client includes an additional header (In-Reply-To), which some mail software (e.g. Mutt, Mailman archives[*]) use to group emails into threads. By replying to a message from an existing thread with completely different subject, you effectively "threadjack" it. Please don't do that.

It's done in a way that is not trivial to extend the .info file output.
