+1 - we can make a new Tools product with as many components as needed for 
individual tools for example. Adding a new Bugzilla instance creates 
unnecessary extra work for ops in both setting up the tracker and maintaining 
it. Ops time is already so thinly stretched out, do we really need this?

We should also consider that there could be a bug that someone reports relating 
to databases for example (or for that matter any other part of MediaWiki or our 
projects) that could be moved into an existing component with existing 
maintainers. 

With regards to maintainers using it to track issues for their tools, we can do 
this on a per component basis with auto cc lists that any Bugzilla admin can 
edit.
