It's not actually a pagure problem, the reason we have a main admin is basically
bugzilla. You can have as many CC as you want in a bugzilla bug, but there can
only be 1 account assigned to the ticket.
This is why in pkgdb we had an "owner" which got changed to "point of contact"
in pkgdb2 and "main admin" in pagure.
