Automatically flag needinfo-only users on every comment #91

I'm frustrated by people who have no idea what is going on on bugs they are cc'd to. I'd like an option to automatically flag such people with needinfo on every comment I make to a bug where they are explicitly cc'd (not just watching the component).

Such folks can be identified easily by their Bugzilla full name, e.g., "John Doe [:jdoe](use needinfo)".

I'm sorry but I don't understand exactly what you'd like to do here. Could you explain in a different way what problem you are trying to solve?

The idea is that, for people on a whitelist in the preferences, if that person is in the CC list on a bug, add a needinfo? flag for them every time I post to a bug.

The need for this has waned over the last few months. When needinfo first started, several people basically stopped reading any bugmail where they were not flagged with needinfo?, making it very frustrating to communicate with them. Most of those folks have gone back to actually reading their bugs now, so I don't really need this anymore.
