Bug Description
If a bug is filed against multiple packages, and one of those packages is incorrect, there's no obvious easy way to unsubscribe from bugmail for it.
For example, consider if a bug is filed against firefox, javascript, cairo, and Freeciv, but has absolutely nothing to do with Freeciv. You can mark the Freeciv component invalid, but this doesn't unsubscribe the bug supervisor contacts for Freeciv. So as the bug continues to accumulate comments, the Freeciv contacts will continue to get (unwanted) bugmail.
The workaround for this is to edit the Freeciv package and change the package to "cruft". This will result in Freeciv no longer getting bug mail, but it seems like a pretty ugly hack.

+1 Some way to un-subscribe from a group's bugs without leaving the group would certainly be good.
