I tend to agree with that.

Hmm... At first I wanted to say "to object relationship", but then
realized that relationships themselves
are versioned. At the same time each object-object relationship may have
its own notification preference.
I guess this either means separate object<->object table for
notification statuses, or copying that
preference when creating new object version, and using last version when
sending out actual
notifications.
