 `always_notify_updater` will not actually add every commenter to the CC
 field, it will just make sure they get notification e-mails. So querying
 on the CC field will not return all tickets where a specific person has
 commented. I suppose you also have to select "Yes" in "Cc me to this
 ticket" to get this result.

 Right, perhaps the text should be modified somewhat in order to note this
 distinction.  For the most common use case, it shouldn't matter - most
 people don't care whether or not they are explicitly in the "Cc" field,
 they just want to receive updates when something changes.  The intent of
 the this functionality is to provide people with a explicit way to
 subscribe (as well as informing them about the implicit subscription)
 without triggering ticket update emails (with the additional benefit that
 they can unsubscribe if they haven't commented on the ticket).

 > For the records, what plugins do you use to get this simplified ticket
 editor?

 The plugin is [attachment:wiki:LocalTracChanges:CCMe.py here].
