Subscriptions to poll closing/re-opening

Title:
Subscriptions to poll closing/re-opening

Area:
polls, subscriptions, interaction makes the world go 'round

Summary:
A subscription to the closing or re-opening of a poll would allow a user to see the final results of a poll, or to go see what happens if more votes are allowed on a poll that was previously closed.

Description:
Subscriptions to individual poll votes would get very noisy very fast and also possibly have privacy implications; sometimes one just wants a reminder to go check back once the poll has closed. That is where this subscription would come in. Since it's likely that one would want to know if the poll opened again, the subscription would be for changes in closed/open state, so it would also work if the poll was opened some time later, unless the subscription was removed.

I do not personally see any deep privacy implications for this sort of subscription provided that the user can see the entry that the poll is in; I would particularly like to hear any concerns on that front, in case I am missing something.
