Or these emails will simply be filtered out like I have done.
S much chaff amongst the wheat that the value/time ratio is too
small for me to even bother.

It doesn't bother me much, as I simply don't read them any more, but I
would prefer a customised workflow where we are actually able to
control what the CMS does.
Maybe we should try the advanced workflow module:

That's right. 

Actually I realized that there is an unintended benefit that I overlooked 
earlier: 
Often volunteers lose interest and stop participating, but they typically do 
not bother to de-register themselves. 
As a result, the site has a large number of dead accounts. 
However, constant alerts from CMS will make them de-register.

The net result is that the site will have only active contributors.

It's not possible to switch off on a per-choice basis.

Publishers always get notification when a page is published, or when
there is a comment/request in the workflow.

Editors only get notifications for the workflow-items they are
involved in themselves.

And I don't think it is worth to change anyway. The actions on the
website will be fewer in future anyway. And then it's very helpful to
get notified on changes (IMHO).

I seem to get one anytime someone "breathes" on the website, and yes, it
is extremely annoying, and yes, it would be very helpful to be able to
switch of this notification on a "per choice" basis.
