A few people have started to organize the various bug reports about watchlists, but there is still much to do before we have a clear & prioritized vision of what the watchlist feature should become.
fwiw I had already suggested a Bug Day focusing on the Watchlist feature.
If this is considered useful Andre could schedule it whenever appropriate.
Therefore, if a few developers could declare their interest in tackling the watchlist issue in the foreseeable future, it would help arouse interest and enthusiasm from users, and motivate them to organize user research in order to design a better watchlist feature.
I don't think we need a formal pledge or commitment; a simple declaration of interest would imho be enough to get started. The specifics can be ironed out later.
Sounds like an entry to
