I'm happy this will be changed soon. As a teacher, I thought that the student, as owner of the document, would create notification settings for everybody. But it looks like it's per user per document. So if a student creates a document and then shares it with me and three peers, each of us must turn off notifications. That's too much work.
I like the idea of notifications being turned off except for the @ feature. Sometimes, students (and teachers!) need a little reminder not to procrastinate with edits. The @ feature allows a student to send an alert for support.
