This information is useless in bugzilla context - unless you know the people already. External users have no way of searching for email adresses in bugzilla, only novell internal users have this capability IIUC.
And even then, OBS usernames do not need to resemble anything that's also present in bugzilla.

To summarize. To know to who you must assign a bug: - The classic way rpm -q --changelog <package> (or look at it from YaST sw_single) and look at the most common emails from the top. - Since the OBS osc maintainer -e <project> <package> - Since the new OBS web interface with anonymous access There is a bug icon in the main window of each package. If you click on it you are redirected to bugzilla with the Assign To field correctly filled. - In the future Have that bug icon in the Software Portal, where users are expected to look? (you can't expect users to know about the OBS or osc) Meanwhile all this perhaps should be added to http://wiki.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bug_reporting_FAQ ?)
