Those who want bug reports for specific categories can subscribe to
that category via Rmail (http://www.r-mail.org/). Would be the
quickest and most effective solution IMO..

But I guess I can add fixed list of people interested in bug category
X which would send person interested a mail on new bugs in that
category.
Wouldn't be hard to implement in our "good-old-bugtracker" but a full
blown "click here to subscribe to this category" and things like that
will have to wait for the new one.

Anyone else think its a good idea?

I'd prefer not to automatically send any mail to anyone. You should be
able to choose what you want mailed and what not. Forcing bug reports
into someones mailbox isn't the solution.
If I would be interested in getting ext/com bug reports in my mailbox
I would subscribe to
http://bugs.php.net/rss/search.php?order_by=id&direction=DESC&status=Open&bug_type%5B%5D=COM+related
via Rmail...

I'd love being able to reply to a bug via mail, too.
The FreeBSDs bug tracker is pretty cool. IIRC you can even attach a
patch to the mail and it will be uploaded to the bug tracker :)
