I wrote up some thoughts about this a while ago at http://wiki.mozilla.org/Location_Prettyprinting -- can he update that page with what his planned design is?

This is a mass change. Every comment has "assigned-to-new" in it.

I didn't look through the bugs, so I'm sorry if I change a bug which shouldn't be changed. But I guess these bugs are just bugs that were once assigned and people forgot to change the Status back when unassigning.
