Bug Description
Bug 511269 is about setting up malone so that only bug supervisors can assign bug reports to people other than themselves or teams of which they are a member.
The problem is that the implementation is too restrictive:
"UserCannotEdit
Participation in a project should be as easy as possible and In the event that the project does not have a bug supervisor anyone should be able to assign a bug task to someone. Configuring it this way also requires less work for the project owner.

I've added this to the bugs backlog on the Kanban board. We should fix this ASAP. In the meantime, projects can work around not being able to assign bugs by creating a bug supervisor team and assigning users to this team who should have the ability to assign others.
