Indeed this is very useful. The last option's label is not very good. "A bug in Launchpad itself is fixed or re-opened" would get you bug lifecycle, so New bugs and when they're closed or re-opened. I would guess that would be okay for you, but maybe not. :-) Well, for at least half of what you want. :-) I'm kidding mostly, but we will at least fix the label, which became obvious with your feedback. I opened bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/702413 about this and added it to our board. We're continuing to talk about the other aspect of this, so I'll let you know if we work out a clean way to do this with either notification levels or the new filter work Gavin is finishing up. We have some ideas, but I suspect this will fall on the next squad who handles this to determine if it's in scope, considered polish, or not worth doing. Thanks again for the feedback!
