In my not huge amount of v7 experience, observers have to be added to tasks via 
omp/api (apologizies if not said correctly).
I did it like this...but observers are limited in what they can do...

omp -iX "<modify_task task_id='task-id-is-in-these-single-quotes'> 
<observers>list-of-space-delimited-already-defined-users</observers></modify_task>"

In order to add to the list, your command must add all PREVIOUS as well as the 
NEW users.  The process does not append, it overwrites.

I am trying with OpenVAS-7 now, but a user that has been set up as observer, 
does not see any notes or overrides that have been created. In addition to that 
I can not add or remove any users as observer to tasks like I was able to in 
OpenVAS-6. Did that change somehow?
