Would make it possible to assign different owners. [...]
If there are packages with the same name in both free and nonfree. But
that should never happen, so this isn't a benefit in practice.

Products in bugzilla can be renamed.
Just wanted to make sure that renaming it later doesn't create to much
trouble for your script.

Do they even know?
Unlikely.
With too many products in bz to choose from they may
get lost in the lists of "components" and give up trying to find a
package name.
Agreed. So splitting in free and nonfree likely doesn't make much sense.
Other issues:
* There are entries in owners.list with no bz account.
[long list striped]
Uhhps. Someone should mail the package owners and ask them kindly to
create an account. Any volunteer that want to do this job? Codename is:
"herding the cats!"
* There are entries which differ between "free" and
"nonfree".
EPEL: libmad
libmad was two times in owners.epel.list for free; fixed
* There is an entry with an "initialqacontact" which is a
field
disabled in this bz. Use "initialcc" instead.
EPEL: libmpeg2
You mean this?
free/owners/owners.list:Fedora|libmpeg2|MPEG-2 decoder libraries \
|kwizart@gmail.com|david(a)juran.se|
Fixed.
* Avoid the '&' character in package summaries in
owners.list because
bz doesn't replace it with a html entity. This breaks parsing of bz
pages.
Fixed.
