In order to get somewhere with this discussion, it

know the current practice of other free software projects, using
Bugzilla or not. As a newcomer, can I assign bugs to myself in GNOME,
KDE, Ubuntu, Debian... etc?
In case any projects which use Bugzilla allow this: I just learned it's
a bad idea [1].
The assignee of a bug report who is not member of the "editbugs" group
defacto has "editbugs" permissions for that specific bug report.
So you could mass-assign bug reports to you in order to bypass your
missing editbugs permissions.
