Bugs that are created for the purpose of getting arches to keyword or

As a maintainer I have to deal with many stable/keywording requests.
Those are bugs that generally hang around in my bugzilla queries and
fill my mailbox and I do not have any ability to help there or fix
them. Those bugmails constitute spam for my mailbox.

It would be cool to implement a [EMAIL PROTECTED] alias just to
assign those bugs to so that we maintainers do not need to see them.

Once the last remaining arch has completed the bug, it is up to them to
close it. They know it's up to them to close it since the bug is
assigned directly to them.

In my opinion the last architecture should also remove the old ebuild
they have just made obsolete by stabling/keywording the new version,
since they commit to the directory anyway.

Best regards,
Stefan
