Sounds like a great improvement to the strings in Bugzilla. Can we buy

+1

If someone files a bug, I think it's reasonable for us to send them at
least two emails regarding the fix:

1) When a fix has been committed (so that they can test it, if they like)
2) When a fix has made it into a shipping release

Why are we so hesitant about sending out emails on bug-status-change?
Is it because the entire cc list gets pinged, not just OP?
