Subject: Elog v2.7.8 does not show substituted attributes while editing or replying 

 Since we updated to 2.7.8 we've found a problem.

Previously, when we used 

Subst on reply subject = Re: $subject

The new "Re: " text would appear in the "subject" field while the user was editing their reply, and they could edit or delete it.
 
Since 2.7.8, however, it does not appear while editing, but shows up only after the user submits their entry. We would prefer that this appears while the user is editing, because in some cases we want the users to have the option to modify this text. Was this intentional? Is there a way to restore the previous functionality?
 
Thank you!
