Automatically convert comments containing '+1' into a watcher

    • Our product teams collect and evaluate feedback from a number of different sources. To learn more about how we use customer feedback in the planning process, check out our new feature policy.

      Popular issues get a ton of comments on them containing simply:

      +1

      In this instance, all the existing watchers on an issue get notified, followed by the obligatory comment from someone else:

      Please stop adding +1 - if you want to show your support for this issue add yourself as a watcher! You're doing nothing but annoying every other watcher of this issue.

      To save everyone the bother, and to help actually reflect the intent of the "+1" comments, I propose comments containing only "+1" are converted to watchers rather than being added as a comment.

      An example of a popular issue with this occurring in it:
