--- Comment #21 from This, that and the other <[email protected]> ---
Perhaps users without editbugs rights should be shown a link "Why can't I
change these fields?" in the corner of the bug fields, which takes them to a
help page on mediawiki.org or meta where they can read about the editbugs
permission, and what criteria they need to meet to get it. 

Then they e-mail the Bugmeister to ask for permissions and explain why they
meet the criteria (or file a request on a mw.o "requests for BZ rights" page -
but then there is a risk of the request being left neglected or ignored if BZ
admins forget to check the page).

This is similar to what bugzilla.mozilla.org uses - if you want canconfirm
rights there, you need to e-mail their admin (Gerv) with links to three good
bugs that you have filed (that have been confirmed, and not
invalid/wontfix/dupes/etc). They seem to be a bit more selective about who they
give editbugs to (although I got it without asking for it - possibly by
mistake).
