Saurabh,
Thanks for the feedback. Now that I think about it, you are right.
In most cases, everyone shouldn't get notified of every change for
every issue. In my case, I have a situation where that is needed, but
I suppose it is not a typical use case.
It would be nice to have more notification options. I agree that
allowing users to subscribe to issues would be great, so they get to
choose what issues they are notified on, rather than whoever is making
a change. But, a global per space setting for "notify all users of
changes" would be really useful as well.
