Yeah. Now that I've gotten most of my objections out of the way, I'm going to assume the approach will be a maintainer bot of some kind, not a native hook in bugzilla itself. Like I would very much like it if it were possible for the bugzilla UI to have a bit of JavaScript that runs as an optional helper that: - Parses your subject string - Warns you if your subject string lacks a recognizable cat/pkg - Shows the recognised cat/pkg if one is present - When a match is present, shows the suggested maintainer list and bug category values and allows you to go "Yep, that's what I wanted". Because assuming the access to the metadata about packages could be deemed fresh enough, that would also improve the bugzilla workflow for developers who know what they're doing, not just novices who don't know how to assign bugs. But I'm guessing that's a bit outside the scope of what can be done with bugzilla. -- Kent KENTNL - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNL
