Don't worry, we already have plenty :)

I think you should apply for provenpackager privileges and fix them
yourself.
Justification: lots of those are really simple bugs, with a fix like
%files
- %{python2_sitelib}/whatever/*
+ %{python2_sitelib}/whatever
Filing a bug is more work than fixing this (even for you, and then you
have to involve the maintainer, so in all the work is quadrupled between
all the parties). Many of those are really simple packaging mistakes and
a good thing to start with for a fresh provenpackager.
I now fixed and built kobo and imagefactory, and pushed a fix without
building for anaconda. On your list, there's still quite a few easy
ones. For the more complicated ones it might be worthwhile to file
bugs.

I think that in this case cutting straight to the chase
(i.e. committing the fix) is the best option. Those are simple issues
and not really worth the bureaucracy, imo.
