Extension talk:Email notification/to-do

I don't know where exactly to add my idea, but here goes. From bugzilla (3234):

brion_away: I was wondering... I searched and didn't find this bug, actually an enhancement namely, I'd like it if an edit to a subpage of a user's talk page occurs, the user is notified by the "you have a new message" message say there's User talk:Dungodung/Tasks and someone decides to give me a task and when he edits the page I get notified because it's in my user talk page namespace but atm, you don't get the notification, because the software can't recognize the subpages from the raw username brion_away: do you get what I'm saying?  well, what we could use is a more general message notification system  right now it's a special-case hack  we could use an improved system for, among other things, system-wide notices (upcoming downtime, etc) as well

So generally, it would be nice to have an enhanced notification system that would allow users to be notified about almost anything that concerns them.

Permissions emails
Being emailed when you've been blocked, granted admin powers, or similar things would also be a useful feature. For the blocking email, it would of course give the reason within the message text, and the reply-to address could perhaps be the blocking admin's email address so you can get straight back to them regarding the issue.
