Please note that this has been in place for about a decade already.
Ie, there already was an org-mode entry in /etc/debbugs/Maintainers.
Now there are two...

Ref eg https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-10/msg00253.html

In case people are confused about how this works:

1. Sending to submit@debbugs with package org-mode sends the report to the
org mode list (since about 2010).

2. If an existing bug is reassigned to org-mode, all future
correspondence goes to the org mode list. (But the act of reassigning
does not trigger a notification mail to that list. So reassign, then
send a followup mail.)

See c-submit-bug-report for a way to integrate into a bug reporting
command.
