It seems to be a combination of both of those things. I think users are generally quite happy to receive notifications as long as they're relevant and useful (and not confusing), and rewording the notification as suggested would certainly help to improve that.
However, I still think it would be more appropriate to reword the message that appears on save, to include more detail about what has been shared and with whom. Currently it just reads: "Access rules were updated for 1 page(s)". Ideally this is the point at which the user who is actually editing the view access should be given this additional information. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

This is not correct, the page owner should be excluded from notification list if s/he is a member of the group s/he shares the page with.
