When the message author goes back to edit the message, as long as no replies have already been added to it, I'd allow them to edit the message Topic as well as the content. (I just tried to do that on a message I posted today and found out that it wasn't an option.)

After replies had been added I guess it could get confusing if the title changed.

What do you think?

There is a topic editing control in the script but currently's it's for admins only (i.e. I can edit it if it's messed up).

I guess it's sensible that the first poster is allowed to edit the topic too, however at the moment the topic controls also contain the locking/pinning/deleting controls. So this might be a little more of a rewrite!
