We'd also need to figure out how to get that information out to the bugzilla syncing scripts/other users who need to access this.... We could special case it on the servers (kinda defeats the purpose of having it in a plugin), add it to the client code in python-fedora (but, at least with the methods I see exposed right now, that means an extra query per user returned which will be unacceptably slow -- probably needs a method to return all the bugzilla emails which would mean client-side we'd have to wait for one extra query per request -- that could be cached on the client-side which would make it faster for scripts that make many calls to one fas objects but still slower for scripts that either run once and then exit or have to use separate fas instances (for instance, for threadsafety)). (Now that I'm going over the problems... I have a vague recollection that Mike might have queried me about these same topics long ago and pinged me about it... if that's correct, maybe we never came up with good answers to this and that's why we've never deployed this.) Another option would be to break backwards compatibility and tell people that bugzilla_email addresses have to be queried separately. It's been quite a while since we had an API break so it's not out of the question to do that. We might want to look at whether there's some other low hanging fruit that we've put off due to API breakage at the same time, though. -Toshio
