not really games specific -- this applies to every component that has a default assignee. unless/until we can make bugzilla aware of specific packages that the user could select/enter so bugzilla could pull owner info out of metadata.xml directly, i think the status quo is the least crappy. relevant: http://bugs.gentoo.org/550158 -mike
