Discussion stalled without an agreement that any patch proposed is
"good", so if it ends here it will be dropped.
You could probably help getting closer to a solution by:
* Not dropping Cc's all the time. I saw this email just by chance.
* Stating *why* this cannot be solved in any other way on the KDE
end. So far you only said

My gut feeling is that a footer line in the commit along the lines
of
Bugzilla-Id: Registered Name <registered.email@xxxxxxxxxxx>
would work. I suspect others have a similar feeling. A good case
why this is not a feasible solution for (presumably) border cases
like you would help get rid of it.
* Replying to e.g.
http://mid.gmane.org/201101111542.15185.trast@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
with (ideally better) ideas of what the semantics should be. My
assessment is that it either conflicts with user expectations or
with established git-config mechanisms of how the various files
override each other.
