Tiny things:

Maybe call the checking function is$SubjectName, not just $SubjectName?
Maybe issue an error of the SubjectList contains a SubsetSubject but no
custom diagnostic, to guard against people doing that by accident?
Attributes can explicitly specify the non-subset diagnostic if that's what
they wanted.

Otherwise, LGTM
