| Summary | 0003571: Notification options: add option to effectively blacklist "no group" (filter its files from notifies) | ||||
| Description | It is currently not possible to blacklist "no group" (to block its notifications). Attempting to do so fails because "no group" is gid 0 and blacklisting gid 0 is not allowed. This results in a massive amount of irrelevant, spurious notifications any time someone decides to add a boatload of such files to the DB, thereby not only wasting the user's time but, more concerningly, potentially burying legitimate notifications in a sea of unblockable trash. I have over 200 blacklisted groups, which is a fair amount yet not that much. Not once have I received an actually relevant "no group" notification, but every week I receive a handful of irrelevant ones, and I cannot for the life of me get rid of them. Ideally, I'd like to have them sent to a different interface that handles them a little better, but I'm sure that would imply a lot more work and getting rid of them would already create a large improvement over the current situation. Please add an option that filters gid 0 from notifications, which effectively amounts to blacklisting "no group". Alternatively, if that's easier, accept gid 0 as a valid blacklist target. | ||||
