It seems that ubuntu-security is no longer "actually" subscribed when
the "security" flag is checked. As a result, I cannot (quickly) find
security-flagged bugs, and additionally get no email when
security-flagged bugs have changes made.

Right. I'm not sure what to do here. There were some bugs (though not
a *huge* number) being incorrectly flagged. I'd almost prefer the old
situation over the current one of having potentially private reports
leaking out into the mailing list.
