For years I've wondered why we don't do that, honestly. But I think it might be weird that bugzilla separates the owner of a package from the owner of a bug, and some of the interactions might be non-obvious.
Yeah.
When I take a bug, will the other maintainers still be notified? Will bugzilla send mail to foo-owner as well as CC'ing the maintainers, so that everyone gets each message twice?
Yeah, if we made the default foo-owner and cc foo-owner, then when you took a bug, everyone would get a email because foo-owner is on there as cc, but you might get two (one for you and one via foo owner)
Will someone be able to log into bugzilla as foo-owner?
no.
What happens to bugs marked as private? If they're private to foo-owner then how will the actual maintainers see them?
Package maintainers would still need to be added to the right groups so they could see private bugs. (fedora_contrib_private I think it is).
