What about the ability to generate email alerts depending on region, so one could subscribe to all new bug reports within a bounding box?
I somehow have the feeling that there are people out there who take pride in having 'their' area mapped accurately and would scamper out to fix bugs (almost) as soon as they get the notification. This leads to something that people can become area stewards. The email could contain the GPX file as attachment for easy upload to GPS.
