Lets see if I can 'splain this.

Directly under the subject field would be a drop down.

Whatever the user selects from the drop down will be inserted into the body.

The value's for the drop down need to be independent for each board.

Whether the drop down is required to be selected or even visible should be independent for each board.

What's it good for?

Lets use Infopop as an example. They have a bug board. They request 'Please include the Version number in your subject.' Instead of hoping someone includes a version number, all the versions could be placed in the drop down and the user would be required to select one.

Would be create for tech support. Could be used for other boards, such as a Ford Mustang board where the drop down includes engine sizes.

Basically use it any time you have a board where you need to force the user to include some specific info in the post.
