Trying to send mail with empty subject field pop-up dialog with text "you did
not specify any subject, type it now, if yoou want ..." appears. Focus in this
pop-up is in the text field, "(no subject)" text already typed, cursor stay at
the and of text.

Expected: "no subject" text is selected. Then, if I really want to provide
subject, i can simply type it - selected text will be replaced. Now I have to
press "backspace", ot press "shift-home", then "delete" - to clear field before
typing.

I think, I have rights to send message with empty subject - "(no subject)" text
is not on place, if letter send to non-english people. It will be more suitable
to have "remember this text for empty-subject letters and dont ask more"
check-box in po-up.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.compose new message with empty Subject field
2.try to send message
3.look into the "Send Message" pop-up
