I mentioned in IRC that I think we can simplify things here by just
using existing message-mode faces rather than inventing new faces for
things like the subject header.

We're already depending on message-mode for composition, so it would be
nice if our presentation of messages looked the same, and very nice if
both presentation and composition could be customized in a single place.

Obviously, message-mode doesn't have anything specific for tags, so I'd
be happy to see a patch that add just the addition of special face
treatment for tags.
