I am not asking for this MIR to be rejected, nor am I asking that the
desktop team monitor the bug mail.  What I am looking for is clarity
about who is ultimately responsible for addressing any problems with
this package with respect to the main inclusion requirements - including
any MIRs that might be required for further future dependencies.  This
was the intent from my side when we had the discussion that led to
listing this as a requirement on the wiki page; I'm sorry if that intent
didn't come through clearly.

Logically, I don't think it makes sense for the development team for a
universe flavor to be ultimately responsible for a package with respect
to main.  Would you agree?

FWIW the context for why I care about this is basically
<http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/m-r-package-team-mapping.html>.
It's important to have an escalation path for bugs on packages in main,
and I believe it's a bug to have "unowned" packages in main.  (I think
it's also a bug that lubuntu and xubuntu are considered "owners" on that
page, since like ubuntu-gnome they are universe flavors; but note that
they each only have one package subscription listed, for a package that
is co-owned by the desktop team.)

Anyway, this isn't a problem that's specific to this MIR bug, so I'm
happy to take the general discussion to email with the MIR team.  Would
the desktop team be happy marking ~desktop-packages as a subscriber for
grilo and grilo-plugins?

Yes, agreed on all points.  It's clearly incorrect to promote a package
to main without updating the bug, and it's very unfortunate that we
don't have audit logs to show who promoted the package.  I will address
this with the archive admin team.
