Okay, this stirred my particular combination of lazy person and busybody. I volunteer to work on modifying the commit-reading/bug-closing script to take a Bugzilla-Id line into account when present if the KDE sysadmins are willing to accept such a modification. Another possibility would be a table (for example a plain text file) mapping git identities to bugzilla identities. Could you put me in touch with them?

Thanks for your work to improve tools.  I do appreciate it.
