Minor UI annoyances: the fact that, when you subscribe to 10 packages in
one email, you get 10 emails in reply, that you each have to confirm
separately [that was the case some time ago, not sure if it's still the
case].

More generally, it's currently not easy to have a team subscribed to all
its packages. Maybe we could have a way to automatically subscribe
someone (team or developer) to a set of packages, using the same
keywords.
Something simple, like a cron script run daily, that would take a list
of emails, and would subscribe each email to each package for which the
mail is in Maintainer or Uploaders. (The list of emails could be managed
by the qa group).
