My fear is that a opensuse-devel would be often hijacked by irrelevant threads as it is happening now with factory (e.g. people posting here when there even is a bug open and the assignee is asking for logfiles from anyone who can reproduce it...).
An issue only known to bugzilla will get more attention here. That's what mail lists are for ;-)
You mean for people who are lazy to search for open bugs and provide the needed information _in the bugzilla entry_? Sure, if there is a potentially dangerous bug it's a good idea to make people aware of it, but "has anyone seen this?"-style posts if there is a bugzilla entry for the problem are IMO off-topic here.
Developers should feel the obligation to subscribe to user's lists to stay in touch with reality - IMO. As you said, it is easy enough (for a dev! ;-) ) to filter mails related to what the develop/maintain/package.
It's easy to catch good subjects. But it ain't easy to fix unreproducible bugs if one has to chase for the information on various mailing lists. Note that I _am_ subscribed to user lists, but I think that bugzilla should be the primary place to handle bugs.
