A subscriber of a (bug|structural)subscription is just a reference to a Person record. So, changing the name of a subscriber should not affect any subscription. > > Also, I don't see why full text search rather than structured search > is needed here - I mean, if the data is structured fairly clearly, > just a regular query would do, wouldn't it? People might be interested to subscribe only to a subset of bugs of a project or source package which affect a certain aspect. Well, a use case would be "subscribe to all new bugs for firefox which mention 'flash'". Sure, you can use tags to do this, but if the tag does not exist for whichever reason, for example, disagreement if it makes sense for the project/package, or if you want to see new bugs in order to decide if the bug should be labeled with the tag, a full text search is quite convenient, I think.
