Alternatively, one could do this with the PTS. It would probably make
it a per-bug opt-in feature, but I guess adding per-bug subscriptions
to the PTS will be less work than adding this kind of configurability
to the BTS.
It reeks of mixing two different things, though: The PTS wouldn't be a
*package* tracking system any more.
