I just wrote a function to grep changelogs for names.  Works almost as
well.  :-)

Perhaps debbugs should have an automatic "nag the maintainer"
functionality.  I mean, at least once.  There's a lot of bug reports in
there that I think are very difficult for a third party to evaluate
whether make sense or not.

Of course, large swathes of Emacs are unmaintained...
