Bug-wranglers are supposed to do that by default. When you see a
non-gentoo developer in metadata.xml, the default action is to assume
his is
the real maintainer and the bugs should be assigned to him. Such
guidance should be documented in the bug-wranglers project page and
not on the
proxy-maintainers one.
