You could probably automate something through scrips, but the trouble with  
using watcher roles for this is that everyone would drown in email -  
people wouldn't just be able to see their company's tickets, they'd also  
receive every correspondence.

I think RT's intent is to implement access control at the queue level - it  
would be difficult to limit access within a queue.
