Nice to hear that it was useful.

There should be one more update - permission in roles to add any watcher, so there can be projects where only watchers from project members can be added.

I would strongly vote for this. We use Redmine internally at my company as our support tracker, and only being able to add watchers from current project members is a significant inconvenience. If a stakeholder isn't CC'd on the initial report email, I have to add them to the project, add them as a watcher and then remove them from the project again.

Great! This is what I was looking for. I would strongly vote for this, too.
Since there are over 150 members in our project, it is really hard to find a member from the pull-down and add one by one several times...

It would be very useful.
PS: Patches aren't usually accepted without tests.

This would be important for adopting Redmine in our company. We're just introducing it as a central place to store ideas & suggestions (as well as real project stuff like bugs,features); and this could be a more open way to involve people than fully dragging them in. I would really like even to add emails that are not Redmine users yet, somewhat like RT does.
Until this happens, we have to use other systems, email, spreadsheets, etc.. causing confusion and waste of time.

So, is there a plan to add this patch? Any help needed? I'd like to invest some time (e.g learning how to contribute, writing tests), in case it would move this forward.

Hi,

I really need this feature, but I don't see it back in Redmine 1.1.1; what happened to this feature?

Is there some other way to add watchers from another (sub)project to an issue reported in a (sub)project.

Any way to get this into the next redmine release? Or maybe into a plugin?
