Description

Even with the pending changes to the notification system, and the ability to control subscriptions, we should consider adding an option on 1.0-stable to disabled notifications on batch modify. This was discussed on the mailing list.

While the test scenario I mention is not a real issue, the common use case for mass editing several, maybe tens of tickets is a real concern. And it would be totally acceptable, if not required to couple the ability for (temporarily) disabling change notifications with a suitable permission (TICKET_ADMIN?).

It may be worth noting that Trac notifications only send one email per batch modify event (unlike the "TagsPlugin mass tag change admin function" described on the mailing list), so I'm not sure I see a need for disabling notifications on batch modify specifically.

(For Trac 1.1.4+ we could look at th:QuietPlugin, or even consider a subscriber that allows configuring rules like Never Notify: Updater was in quiet mode in the notification user preferences.)

You are right about the change probably not being needed. I was confused about the functionality at the time I created the ticket.

I like the functionality of the QuietPlugin, so having that integrated in the core is appealing.

I'll leave to your judgement whether to move this ticket to a 1.1.x milestone or close it as wontfix, with the possibility that the requested functionality will be added in another ticket.

There's already an enhancement request for a feature to skip notifications (#8607), so I'd say we can close this ticket.
