I see an other solution that might work, with no heavy code work.

With the [custom wizard plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/custom-wizard-plugin/73345), you may do multiple actions in one procedure. So in that case, you would ask the user to write their sub-topic with a wizard that would:

- Create a new topic for the subtopic
- Create a replay in the main topic linking the subtopic.

With some custom CSS for all the main posts (you can add a CSS class to select them with a category or a tag), you can modify the replies appearance to match what you have in mind. You might also find a way with the wizard to add a parameter to the replies that will allow you to select only the automatic replies.

If you don’t like the reply solution, I think the custom wizard may also add the tag on the created sub-topic.
