Not sure what jira does about an assignee when (s)he is removed from the
contributors list (I know you have to add a person to the contributors list
order to assign a jira to them).Other than the committers, we probably have at
least one jira assigned to a contributor (otherwise why add him/her as
contributor).
Can we change the jira rules in our space to allow assigning jiras to users
even when they're not listed as contributors?
We do not have a formal contributor status (why not?), so this list is only
needed because of jira.

I wasn't sure how we generate the list of contributors. But then I noticed
that we don't link to jira for it like I thought we did[1].
How about I make a saved jira query for people who have had jira's assigned
to them, add a link to that query for our "here are the contributors"
section, and then trim off from the role anyone who hasn't been assigned an
issue in the last year?
