I was thinking about this a couple of hours ago, but in the different
direction: why not mailing the submitter by default?

Ideally, I'd imaging nnnnnn@b.d.o to reach

- submitter
- maintainers
- subscribers

We already have -quite if we want to not mail people.

Do others feel we should enable emailing the submitter by default?
there are some reasons not to?
