The spellchecker should also check the subject line.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start writing a new message
2. Write some garbage in the subject line, the Spellchecker button is not active
while you are in the subject
3. Move on to the message body, write some more garbage and hit the Spellchecker
button.

Actual Results:  
Only the body is checked.

Expected Results:  
Both subject and message body should be checked and the Spellchecker button
should be active all the time, even when you are editing email addresses.
