Comment 4 on the bug report cracked me up: "Obviously, google doesn't believe in deleting data."

  No it is not funny. The comments section on an issue is not a place for jokes or otherwise unhelpful comments. It is not twitter or a comments section on a blog. Everyone on that list gets pinged whenever there is an update. This is the place to fix the bug. People should not see every single input box as an invitation to demonstrate their wit.

    It's good that they are pinged. Maybe they be annoyed enough to fix it.

      Right, the best way to get a bug fixed is to annoy the people who might fix it for you.

      It also 'pings' everyone who starred/subscribed to the issue out of interest - very not cool

        It's the reason I don't star issues any more. The number of "me too!" comments is out of hand.

    This is one reason I tend to cringe when I see direct links to bug reports on social-media sites (like this one). Tends to end up with "angry user" posts filling up the comment thread.
