Are tags in "My Tags" automatically Watched?  Or should I enter those 
tags in both fields?

I really like the option to get email when my packages are mentioned.  I 
think it will mean that users get help faster, since those of us who are 
not constantly watching the mailing list will see relevant questions 
right away.
