I disagree about this point. IMHO the procedure described in
<http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/bug-wranglers/> makes more sense:

# When the file [i.e., metadata.xml] lists multiple entries, then you
# assign the bug to the first maintainer, and CC the other
# maintainer(s) and herd(s).

Explicit maintainer elements should have precedence over implicit ones.
