I know, and this is another pet peeve.  The Monitor button doesn't
tell you whether you're currently monitoring or not, so if you've
forgotten that, you may end up having to click the button twice (if
you're already in the desired state).  Also, I believe there's another
way to become subscribed to a bug (maybe by being the author, maybe by
adding a comment to it) that is not revertible.  These are all evil
hidden states!
