Thread:Talk:Echo (Notifications)/Bundling and expiry/reply

I agree on the principle, although not everything should expire. For instance, the page gives reverted edits as an example: even after months, when they're no longer in the RC table and in the watchlist, if I've not reviewed the revert, I should be able to know about it. On the other hand, notifications about years-old discussions are probably useless because they're no longer relevant.

With regard to your example, though, I don't understand: is it random, or is this notification system (in the new special page) supposed to replace the watchlist? If this is the case, I suppose it's also meant to serve as a global watchlist?
