Bug Description
If you have a bug with multiple tasks, and you change one of the tasks, Launchpad sends a mail with something like:
> ** Changed in: bzr-fastimport
> Status: New => Invalid
This could very well, and it seems often does, give users the impression that the entire bug has been marked invalid. See for instance <https:/
One way to tackle this would be to state the current actual state of all tasks. That may scale poorly on comedy bugs like number 1 though.

Hmmm, did't we have this filed ~ a month ago?
