I've found these:

  non-priveleged users can remove the qa contact
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/116017

  QA contact was removed instead of my email added to cc:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/132004

But what looks like a bug to the user could be a side-effect of a
feature. E.g. QA contact removes himself, but database update or
ticket update is not posted until another change like adding a user to
Cc is done. Hence I asked before I queried bugzilla.

I'm sure there are other bugs. It happens to me that I receive empty
bugzilla mails occasionally, which contain only the link to a ticket.
