Should definitely stay as a plugin. Doesn't scale well, is handled in core by per-entry comment feeds, and has potential spam email implications. And I say that as the author of the plugin. :-)
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Currently handled by plugins, mailing people is a tricky experience to do well -- without spamming people.
My vote is won't fix.
