IMO this should be done before the bug is created. You can set the
default bug description template for the component to a template with
this message in it.

It probably needs to be reflected in other UIs related to Fedora
packaging, so it should be tracked somewhere and when the fedora bot
updates the component details in Bugzilla it could change the default
description template to match the update policy.

There might have more than 2 states for this.

Cheers, Jeff.
