It wouldn't break any of my filters.
Personally, I like it when a mailing list uses the [LISTNAME] prefix. I
get thousands of messages per day and a bunch of list messages, and even
after filtering, having that type of prefix makes it visually easier for
me to get a handle on what's important and what is not. When such a
prefix is missing, the message subjects when there are many messages are
actually more difficult to visually process, for me, even when all of
the messages within a directory are from the same list.
My 2 cents.
