If your email server is based on sendmail, you can create a "alias" and send 
the email to that.  So if you add the line...

   qa: bob,fred,george

to your /etc/aliases, and tell bugzilla to set the QA to [e-mail], 
sendmail will expand that to send the same message to all 3.  Note, after 
editing /etc/aliases, you need to run "newaliases" or something (at least for 
all implementations of sendmail I've had to configure)

We want bugzilla users to be able to create cc list per componenct level.  We 
have people from different countries which names are very hard to remember, and 
aliasing and creating BUNCH of group will create somewhat same problem.  Thanks 
for the tip though

Reassigning bugs that I'm not actively working on to the default component owner
in order to try to make some sanity out of my personal buglist.  This doesn't
mean the bug isn't being dealt with, just that I'm not the one doing it.  If you
are dealing with this bug, please assign it to yourself.

Yeah, agreed, this would be a useful feature. :-)
