      Correct and useful behaviour:
      1) Open an Issue.
      2) Choose Operation "Assign this issue"
      3) Select a new user as assignee, - hit "OK".

      Both the CURRENT assignee and the NEW assignee are both sent a notification email because we have a notification scheme with:
      Event: "Issue Assigned" and Notification: "Current Assignee".

      This is all great!

      Problem:
      1)
      2) Instead of using the Operation "Assign this issue", use the operation "Edit this issue".
      3) Select a new user as assignee, - hit "Update".

      Result: ONLY the CURRENT assignee is sent an email. The NEW assignee is not sent an email. This is not expected or useful behaviour.

      I have verified this problem by looking in the Mail Queue in the Administration area as soon as the email are generated. Only 1 email is generated via the Edit operation, while 2 are generated via the Assignee operation.

      thanks,
