This is more or less what happens now that bots have the right "Not have minor
edits to discussion pages trigger the new messages prompt (nominornewtalk)",
although it's not entirely clear to me how this interacts with watchlist/enotif
preferences (one can disable enotifs for watchlist, enotif for talk and
watchlist for minor edits, but probably not enotif for talk on minor edit,
unless there's some interaction).
I'm closing this WONTFIXED (but could also be considered FIXED) because this
makes the originally requested opt-out/opt-in not necessary.

IMHO it's also not desirable because the person leaving a message should know
how it's going to be treated (e.g. to choose between talk edit and
Special:Emailuser). If an edit is not important enough to trigger a
notification, the correct fix is to make it a minor bot edit, but there's no
reason to believe that bot edits are always less important then non-bot edits
(like e.g. someone fixing a typo or something else on a talk).
