In addition, there could be an option to change the subject on saving. For instance, I would like to have a counter in front of the file name, to avoid emails with the same subject to be overwritten in the file-system's folder.

For the file name, I would probably do the same thing that I did with attachments, namely to sanitize the subject by replacing all characters except letters and numbers with a dash, and then using the standard "create a unique file" call (which adds numbers at the end of the file name to make it unique) to create the file.
I would also find this one very useful. I wrote a script in pocomail some time ago and it did the job nicely (almost). Sadly pocomail is not keeping up with development.
What I would love to be able to do from Thunderbird is to save emails (as .eml files) to variable directories. For example Z:\Design\%jobname%\Email\Incoming\<sanitised jubject>, with the file touch date preserved as the send or receive time of the original email.
This would require the filter to be capable of operating after the email had been filtered into the %jobname% email folder or by translating the directory name from the filter itself (eg. If Subject: contains 'Project X' then Save the file (to the above directory) using %jobname% = PRO11059 Project X).
With 3 requests, this counts as a "most requested" feature! I'll try to look at this when I update FQ. But most of my effort goes elsewhere these days, so I only put in a day or two per quarter.
