## Description

### Steps to reproduce

1.  Set up a template project P that includes several work packages assigned to user U.
2.  As user U, make sure that in-app notifications for being an "Assignee" are enabled.
3.  Create a new project (as a user different from U) based on template project P and ensure that all work packages (assigned to user U) are properly copied along with the project.
4.  Sign in as user U and check your in-app notifications.

### What is the buggy behavior?

*   User U does not receive any in-app notifications about the new work packages he is assigned to in the new project. (Only when any changes are performed on these work packages, a notification is sent.)

### What is the expected behavior?

1.  User U should receive an in-app notification for the newly created work packages he is assigned to since otherwise information may get lost.
