I believe this is a bad idea, because only the maintainer get the bug reports by default, and I believe the entire team should get a message when new bugs arrive. In the Debian Boot team, the packages are group maintained with the uploaders as the persons taking most care of the packages. I believe this work very well. If group maintainence do not work properly, I believe it need to be fixed in the group. I doubt shuffling fields in the control file will fix the problem.
