It is difficult to "see" activity on bugzilla, a la Recentchanges. (I guess if you are subscribed to wikibugs-l you see everything...) for example there is no straightforward way (ie link from the mainpage) to see the most recently entered bugs, or the most recently closed bugs, or the highest priority still-open bugs. These are probably fairly straightforward reports -- maybe it would be good to link them on the bugzilla front page?
I tried subscribing to wikibugs-l for a while, but there was too much noise: state changes, CC list changes, comments on bugs that I don't care about (without proper context), etc. I have a saved search to show new bugs, but there's no way to tell which ones I've read and what my backlog is. I also have saved searches for particularly important extensions that I maintain (OggHandler and CentralAuth), but it's easy to forget to look at them for a while. So there's room for some software improvement there.

I found using a RSS reader subscribed to gmane feed of wikibugs-l allows a easy and quick overview of what's new etc. while avoiding all the noise for things I don't care about.
