You can wind up with multiple contributors making the same statement in rapid succession. Using the assignee field provides a "lock".

Contributor has unambiguous ownership of the bug.
mentor has unambiguous ownership of the contributor (and the process).

Is there a downside here that I don't see? You'll still wind up with regulars on #introduction who have started relationship building with the contributors assigning them to your bugs as is current practice.

+1. Bug 1092471 was a recent example of two contributors who,
unfortunately, worked on the same bug without each other knowing. I
think we should take steps to avoid that if we can.
Shouldn't a simple comment "I'll be working on this in the next
week/month" take care of this?
