Bug Description

In the bzr project I'm subscribed to all questions and all bugs.

When we link a bug with a question, and change some?all? fields in the bug, I get two mails:
 - one from the bug 'change X'
 - one from the question '[Question #115445]: Status of bug #597942 changed to 'In Progress' in Bazaar'

This is extremely annoying, because I have to read the mail to see that its entirely redundant with what I already knew.

I'm not sure where this belongs, conways law strikes again.
