Bug Description
When subscribing someone else to a bug, the subscribed person currently does not get a notification email about this if he's subscribed more than 5 minutes after the last change to the bug. A common workflow is:
* add a question as bug comment
* subscribe some people who might be able to answer it
but those may not get bug mail unless another comment is added, so they easily get missed.
The notification email should have X-Launchpad-

To post a comment you must log in.
To be clear, a notification does get sent together with the first bug notification to the subscribed user. If the person is subscribed within 5 minutes of the comment being added, he will get a notification. We should still change it to send the 'you have been subscribed' notification right away, and not depend on some other notification being sent.
