Create email notifications for application coordinators on comment
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Coordinators processing an application don't get notifications except if they have already commented on the application, which they have no requirement to do. This means comments are being missed by coordinators.

When comments are left, previous commenters, and the applicant, receive notifications. We should also notify the last coordinator to take actions on the application.

Old text
Right now email notifications for comments on applications are sent to 1) the editor who submitted the application and 2) anyone else who commented. However, the coordinator(s) responsible for the partner in question may also wish to be emailed even if they have not commented, and perhaps additional people would also want to watch a given application. We need to consider who is in the set of interested parties for an application; determine how they can be identified (click a 'watch' icon? be automatically generated from info in the database?); and make sure email is sent to all of them.

Re-scoped. The only 'interested parties' are the applicant and the coordinator. Almost no one else can even see the application. But we do want to notify coordinators of comments.

However, coordinators need not be notified of their own comments on such applications.

facepalm

Will fix on Monday, and update tests accordingly!
