The one pitfall in the ?tg_format=plain bugzilla list linked above is
that not every user name is an email alias, which you could construct
by appending the primary Fedora Project domain. The list includes some
group names, which are mapped to a completely different email address
using the account system. Hence a second list from the FAS needs to
be retrieved.
