Comment 6 for bug 567004

My preference would be to do something along the lines of bug 568169 and add the ability to distinguish work from API clients in bugs. Then, we could couple that with adding an email header and a notification setting to turn of or filter notices from api clients. The other issues raised here -- noise from changes to title, description, or adding tags -- should be configurable by themselves, regardless of whether or not that change is minor.

Would that be acceptable, rather than a "minor change" flag? I don't generally care for these kinds of flags.

Note, too, that we are about to begin work on improving Launchpad Bugs notifications, so this is could perhaps be done as part of that work. See: https://dev.launchpad.net/LEP/BetterBugSubscriptionsAndNotifications for more info on that work.
