Subject of copied thread in custom Thread Tool

Currently, if you create a new thread tool and tell it to copy to a new forum, the "new subject" will apply to the OLD thread and not the new one.

Maybe we could have two fields? that way we can make it so the new topic that just got copied can have a different subject than the old one.

For example, you have one forum that you use for announcements, but you keep each topic locked to keep it clean and in order. You create a new forum specifically for user feedback on those topics. You add a new thread tool for your main forum so you can easily copy the thread into the newer one, oh but wait, your "Comment on: {subject}" and your "Open thread" applied to the OLD one and not the new one! Pity...
