Case 2 - Metadata contains a single maintainer

- The herd field is not used.
- The maintainer address is used as the bugzilla assignee.
At least for some packages I'm involved with, this will result in me
deleting myself from metadata.xml (but I'd rather not do so).
I like these bugs to go to the herd, not me directly. I get the bug mail
anyway (I'm in the herd) but sometimes other herd members who see the
mail jump in and help resolve the bug, for which I'm very grateful.
That aside, I like having myself in the metadata alongside the herd, to
point out that I am the primary maintainer within the herd for the
package in question. It is also useful for others so that when they have
questions about the package, they know who to approach on IRC or whatever.
Apart from those small concerns, I like the idea of what you are proposing.
Thanks,
Daniel
