I suppose there could be a preference for this though. One, it could just be a friendly reminder. Two, it could be a forced shortening of the due date. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

A recall feature would of course still be useful at some point. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. You are watching all bug changes.
