Bug Description

Making a structural subscription is a big deal. Potentially, I'm going to get a lot of email. Also, it's an Ajax interface and sometimes they appear to have completed an action but something has interrupted the process and nothing's happened.

When I make a structural subscription, I expect to see a confirmation on the page telling me:

 * the nature of my subscription
 * the name of my subscription
 * maybe the email header.

I'd expect this because:

 * I want confirmation it really happened.
 * I know that sometimes I click the wrong thing and I want to know if I need to fix something in the subscription I just made.
 * I want to know how to filter the email I'm gonna get.

Some of this information appears on the "Edit subscriptions" page.

I've marked this as "High" because it's part of the polish that I think we lack in other parts of the interface and so sometimes gives our features an unfinished feel.

The fix is on qastaging. Here are a couple of screen shots of the
feedback you get when creating a subscription: http://imgur.com/a/mEkmk.
One is of the simplest message you can get, the other is of the most
complex.

If you (Matthew) like the result, just change the qa-needstesting tag to
qa-ok and it will go out on the next no-downtime deployment.

Thanks.
