I want just to avoid duplicate work, in case someone feels
the need to use, say wmtop, and than wm*; sure they are
nice apps to start understanding portage, because they are small,
but if someone already did that three weeks ago without telling .... 
aargh :-)

I would like to help developing a flexible command line submission system.
I'm interested in how are you currently organized, how and who read the
"bug" submissions ...
  Alternatively I could write a dummy client which connects to the 
bugzilla like a webbrowser and automates the submission.
  (I suppose there is not a secure straight connection to the bugzilla 
backend)
  I see all this by a user perspective, not as a maintainer; so I would
like to learn more.
