According to bug 370247, less privileged bugzilla users are not able to change the assignee of a bug. This is problematic when they report a bug in a wrong product/component, but decide to move this bug themselves, without letting a bug triager do it. Expected result: - user is not able to move a bug, -OR- - user is able to change the assignee (automatically using default assignee for new component) -OR- - assignee is automatically changed even for users that are not privileged.
Hmm, I guess this is a bug in Bugzilla itself. Could you file this with upstream?
Is this still valid ?
I guess the enhanced default permissions for every user fixed it.
