322666 - Send attachment flag changes (eg. review denied) to attacher also

Status: NEW

(Bugzilla :: Email Notifications, enhancement)

Description

[Karsten Düsterloh]

If you attach a file and someone else requests a flag for that from a third person, you don't get notified.
This is extremely annoying if the attachment is a patch and the flag is a review flag - you don't get notified even though the patch has (been denied) the flag!

Related, but from another perspective: bug 180296.

This request really makes sense, especially when the flag request is being redirected to another reviewer (the original requester won't be notified anymore). I will try to take care of it when rewritting Flag.pm, unless someone else can come with a fix meanwhile.

We are in "soft freeze" mode to prepare 3.0 RC1.

Bugzilla 3.2 is now frozen. Only enhancements blocking 3.2 or specifically approved for 3.2 may be checked in to the 3.2 branch. If you would like to nominate your enhancement for Bugzilla 3.2, set the "blocking3.2" flag to "?". Then, either the target milestone will be changed back, or the blocking3.2 flag will be granted, if we will accept this enhancement for Bugzilla 3.2.

This particular bug has not been touched in over eight months, and thus is being retargeted to "---" instead of "Bugzilla 4.0". If you believe this is a mistake, feel free to retarget it to Bugzilla 4.0.
