My question is more about giving those individuals the option to decide
where future bug reports go, and "cleaning-up" defunct addresses (if
any).
I would also think that such "Cc:" functionality should be a part of the
centralized bug managing system, and not the bug reporting mechanism in
GNU/Emacs.
I thought that the general direction being taken now is to let the bug
management system send out any appropriate additional copies of the
report like:
bug report --> bug management system --> specific maintainer (if any)
