I know we are able to subscribe to an RSS feed for tags (tag history). I would really like to take this a step further. What I mean is, I'd like to be able to SUBSCRIBE to a tag so that I get an email notification whenever a case is created with this tag.

This would allow anyone who "specializes" in a subject (tag) to be notified and possibly intervene sooner in order to help out with the case.

I have not found this in FogBugz. If this already exists please let me know. Otherwise, is this something that can be added?

I would imagine that there are RSS readers that will take an RSS feed and email you updates...have you looked?

This sounds like something that can be achieved by writing a plugin:

Implement IPluginBugCommit. If a case is edited and the tags have been changed, look to see if a particular tag has been added (or removed?) and then send out notifications using CMailApi (available as of FogBugz 8.0).
