Hi, I saw that, when I open a bug, check "Add self to cc" (Don't hit submit), then click on creating an attachment, choose a patch, fill in the wizard and hit finish, the patch/comment/description is submitted while the email address is not added to the cc list. So after submitting a patch, I have to hit submit a second time, to add myself to the cc list. The tooling should probably realize when the "Add self to cc" box is checked and submit that information as well. Kind regards, Artur
The attachment dialog works independently of the task editor, i.e. outgoing changes in the editor are not submitted when attaching files. The reason is that the workflow is not embedded in the editor and hence submitting the task could perceived as an unintended side effect. Does that make sense?

If it's meant to be this way, that's fine. However, if I submit a patch and my editor was marked dirty before, after submitting, the editor is not dirty anymore. So my changes in the editor don't get submitted but simply disappear. So from my view it seems like my editor changes actually do get submitted (hence the dirty flag is gone) but they are not.

Thanks for pointing this out. I can see how that is unexpected. The automatic refresh after the attachment submission causes it to get saved. Unfortunately there is no simple workaround or change to address that. For now I can only recommend to check for outgoing tasks in the task list to track unsubmitted changes. I'll keep this bug open to track this problem. Fixing it would require involved changes to the task editor model so we won't be able to consider it in the short term.
