Details

Often I have decided I wanted to see who got bugmail after I filed some bug.
Reasons why vary. Typically I decide only after clicking on the new bug number.
So, to see the list, I must click the back button to see the list.
Unfortunately, this can cause a duplicate report to be filed. This just happened
to me - twice on the same bug. I filed bug 277956 several hours ago, and
eventually bug 277988 and bug 277990 resulted. If my initial bugmail had
included the real CC list, I'd have not even tried the back button, which
wouldn't even have been available if I had closed the browser anyway.
As a side note, you can still view them by removing mentally from the actual CC
list the emails that appear on the activity log.
Oh, I understand, you're not talking about the real CC list, but about the email
list that appears when sending bugmail.

That's practically the CC list and their watchers. Currently we don't have a
feature that allows to display who is watching a particular email address.
Although that is pretty easy to find out by making a throw-away account, setting
it to watch that email and do some investigation tricks.
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.

This would be a perfect way to grab other email addresses (which can then be used for spamming). Displaying others' email address should be avoided. Marking WONTFIX.

Every time you submit a bug or additional comment you see a list of the CCs generated, so why would fixing this provide a spam opportunity that everyday bug submission doesn't already?
