I read now the whole thread about this issue...
I think there are two problems here:


1. Dev/Contributor should work as first duty on the packages he/she
touched the last time. Therefore, the dev/contributor don't have to
check for merge/sponsor bugs in the first place.
2. LP is hard to track to. Regarding, that we don't have special
maintainers for packages, you can't track all the time the status or
new bugs of all packages/bugs filed at LP. Yes, it sometimes sad for
the contributor...but the easiest way is to go online and ping someone
for checking. 

I, for myself, don't check for the packages I touched last for bugs,
because it takes too much time...and time for bugfixing and other
things can be done, after I checked if the package I touched last is a
sync or merge...

Regards,
