Sounds reasonable to me. Can't be too hard to do "Assigning back to
b-w's because I don't maintain this package" or similar.

On a side note: How is the "b-w SOP doc" coming? It is obvious to me
the b-w is tedious a time consuming so I would like to help every now
and then but I really am not sure about the rules wrt assignment just
by looking at metadata.xml. IMO, b-w'ing is something that anyone can
do.
