Here's a simple patch for $SUBJECT. It will remove any leading spaces from
the grid cell display and replace them with '[...] '. In edit mode, the
data is unchanged.

The only downside I can see to this is that the tooltip will show the
modified data when it probably should actually show the un-modified data.
Unfortunately that's handled by a SlickGrid plugin, which would have to be
vendorised and modified (perhaps non-trivially). I don't think that's a big
issue though.
