I don't get your point here. You say expanding one bug won't work very
well, and then you explain how it works at the moment. Expanding a bug
would put a "yes, subscribe me" button on the page.

Yes, we want to prod the user to show around. I'm afraid a sub-heading
won't work at all. People will read the main heading, and then look at
the list. They will only read the sub-heading if they think there is a
way to subscribe to the bug, and are stuck at figuring out how to do it.
