In this case you also may not have a @fedoraproject.org alias at all, so if we used that in bugzilla it wouldn't work for those users. The new account system we are hoping to move to later in the year I think will have a dedicated entry for bugzilla account, so you can put what you prefer in it. (I'm not 100% sure that will be/is implemented, but it was asked for). kevin
