Diego, that is definitely what we're thinking about for the subscriptions options -- giving users the ability to choose whether they want to subscribe to every new thread, or just get a notification that a new thread has been created. The balance that we have to figure out is how to provide options on that page-by-page level without forcing people to go through two clicks every time.
Right now, the list of items on the roadmap is on the Mediawiki Flow page. [1] We're not enforcing a strict centralized place for discussions right now; they're happening in a few different places. I'm going to be talking with the Community team later this week to see what we can do about that. I think the EE mailing list [2] is probably the best place to see what's current and talk with the team. We'll probably be tackling the subscription/notifications question in more detail in a few weeks. Right now, we're working on Hide, the Table of Contents, Search and the LiquidThreads transition. There's a lot to do! But we'll definitely be getting back to notification options before too long.
