The kind folks at Red Hat have reached out to me several weeks ago and shared their implementation with me.
Set up wasn't necessarily obvious, and I believe Red Hat are running an older, patched/hacked version of Bugzilla, so I'm not sure if their suggestions would apply to our newer, vanilla Bugzilla. Matt's implementation of a Bugzilla group seemed to be the best compromise with the cycles we had available while we investigate a better, more permanent solution.
