If someone assigns all the bugs for the git plugin and the git client plugin to me, "assignee" will no longer be a useful field to me and I will ignore it. I already ignore severity and several other fields, so that isn't a big problem. I'd then maintain a record of my "working set" somewhere else. It will probably be less visible to others, since I won't necessarily try to use Jira to maintain it. I'm fine with maintaining my "working set" elsewhere, I only use Jira for the working set because I'm already there reading bug reports. I acknowledge that I'm an exception (since the git plugin and the git client plugin are second only to the Subversion plugin in the total count of bugs open against them), but since Jesse noted that others use the same assignment process which I use, I may not be as much of an exception as you think. Thanks!
