Well, right. That's why I said that it would be better if the Gitorious
guys further relaxed the coupling of the access controls and separated
them out from the groups they're currently in.

However, I don't agree with the assertion that things are in this awful,
worse-than-nothing state. Yes, they could be better. But it's halfway
there. And you should keep in mind that it's not like users are losing
something by not being able to get these merge request emails right now,
because we didn't have this capability before -- so it's not like we had
it, and then lost it. The merge requests themselves are still public,
they're just not getting notification in their email inboxes.
