I've got an RSS feed for questions asked in the forums on my own plugins. (I don't remember where I got it.) Is that the best way to keep on top of new support requests for my development?

You can subscribe to email notifications too.
On your plugins page, in the support tab, there should be a link which lets you subscribe to emails.
I see Notify me of follow-up posts via email, but that only produces notifications to responses to a post I create. What I need to a notification when someone else first creates a support post related to my plugin.

It shouldn't, that should ping you for all support posts in that plugin forum.
What's the support forum link for your plugin?
I'd like to get notification for all my plugins.
Are you saying that I should go to the support tab of each on my plugins, and submit a post with something like "Ping" in the title, and as long as I have the notify... checked, I'll get an email when someone asked different question?
I've following http://wordpress.org/support/rss/view/plugin-committer/mattdeclaire in my RSS reader.
I suppose I could use https://ifttt.com/ to send me emails from the RSS feed.

As I understand it (as I'm not a plugin author) you need to visit the support URL for your plugin
http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/press-news-events
And click on the link labeled "Subscribe to Emails for this Plugin" (it's got a nonce, no point in sharing that link).
That should send you emails when someone posts in that forum.
Ah. I see the issue. For some reason that link doesn't show up unless there are already posts. For example, my recently added plugin.
You must log in to post.
