I think I didn't explain it enough. What I'm trying to say with
"integration with GNOME Bugzilla" is the usual integration between
tinderbox and bugzilla, that's it, the tinderbox inserts links to the
bugs solved by each checkin into the status pages. Currently this
integration works if both tools are located in the same machine.
Integration with remote Bonsai and Bugzilla are in Mike Taylor's todo
list, so maybe it will be available soon.

I do not suggest to automatically submit bugs, I think this is a human
task. IMHO I could be better do send a mail (we currently do it here in
our projects), don't you think so?

When talking about client authentication I'm talking about email
authentication with email signing or something like this.

Good point, I didn't realize it.
