Hi all,
I've also tested the User Right notifications that were just deployed and whilst you receive an email when you have a user right added to your account, you don't currently get one when a user right is removed from your account.
That's probably an oversight, but from what I've been told the option to opt out from any email notifications intentionally isn't available so as to reduce the number of preferences for users to configure. Another justification is that a user is unlikely to have their user rights changed too often, so email traffic should be minimal.
This seems reasonable, but for future notifications, how are we going to decide whether something is worth a preference or not? I'm thinking that anything that technically affects your editing, e.g. a notification that you've been blocked or renamed (if Echo supports that in the future) would be something that probably shouldn't be opt-out-able.
Can anyone think of any other notifications that should not be opt-out-able (or does anyone think that all notifications should be individually opt-out-able?)
