That's not really the reason why we don't already notify other contributors. The problem is how to figure out who already gets a copy of the mails that are sent to a bug and doesn't need a second copy.[1] It certainly needs to be made easier to subscribe to a bug when you send a message to a bug, but that's a bug that is filed, and I kind of already have a plan for doing it properly.
