I am also subscribed to wikibugs-l, and I believe Roan is as well (or was 
anyway).

I agree with Chad, it should continue to work as expected. From a globalwatcher 
point of view, whatever change is made to a bug, it must not affect the fact 
that the globalwatcher address (wikibugs-l in this case) is notified. The 
default CC status of "Nobody <[email protected]>" is afaik just 
for legacy reasons and as placeholder. wikibugs-l as Bugzilla account isn't 
actually used afaik. In the Bugzilla configuration, wikibugs-l is configured as 
globalwatcher.

The proposal Andre makes here sounds confusing, How is that different from the 
current situation? What problem is it supposed to address?
