Actually, this is the first time I see this request :) I think you are right with your analysis; probably, the first thing to do would be to create a "user_can_see_bugnote($userid, $noteid) function and then modify all the rest to use that function. Then, the logic in the function could be improved to support your request. > > Is there interest in this functionality?
