i like ted’s idea of ‘email me when this is fixed’ or perhaps ‘resolved’, with an added text box for the reminder. i think this would be useful to quite a few people across the community.

I wonder if bugzilla could use an additional checkbox, just “email me when this bug is FIXED”? (Not that bugzilla’s UI could use an additional anything, really.) That doesn’t address your use case though, unless it can also contain a TODO item for you.

Are you still using Things for GTD? Does it have an API you could use to make your script add TODOs for you?

I get a warm jsfuzzy feeling when closed bugs get updates like “New API noted in MDN documentation”, “DOM jsfuzzer uses new API”, “fix ported to SeaMonkey”, etc. It’s useful information that reminds people of the breadth of Mozilla work. But maybe not “This fix has been tweeted joyfully” ;-)

I wonder if Bugzilla could have a “Find external” that would find loosely coupled external links, like your after-fix lists and references in wiki.mozilla.org. Google search for link:https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=637424 doesn’t work.
