 Trac is very noisy. Right now, it is sending everybody mail every time
 every field changes. This is insane. We should tell it that some field
 changes should only send mail to the ticket owner, if that.

 It looks like the trac people tried to document this, but hit a fail wall:
 http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracNotification#Customizingthee-mailcontent

 I have no idea what the hell is going on in that file format. I don't even
 know where to start. Are those comments in there? What is up with that
 indentation? and the field names??

 I think someone actually has to send a mail to the trac mailinglists to
 figure this out.. That, or perform a ton of experiments tweaking the
 format and seeing what changes, in an attempt to reverse engineer it... :/
