Comment (by LewisCowles):

 Just to link in I feel this is important to have option for auto-
 subscribing.

 @tazotodua I love your passion, had the same initial thought process, but
 maybe calm down a notch.

 So I didn't know about meta trac either :S but here is a bit more
 information involving @clorith from the slack.

 I fully accept auto-subscribing may not be the fix, but feel this is a
 problem, and could be leading to less than stellar outcomes from plugin
 support (even if just in a minority of cases).

 Finding a solution way to update a support team automatically when a
 plugin is submitted, with a mechanism for them to then manually drop the
 reins if they don't help them, would help me.

 The support request I received were actually two 5-star reviews, so it's
 not always about problems being reported, but opportunities for outreach
 to those using plugins.
