Those bugs are there for informational reasons, and there's no important (in the sense that it avoids double work) information in "this guy is going to help me". You can add a co-maintainer by putting his name (and e-mail) in the "Uploaders:" field in debian/control. The result of that is that uploads which have him as the changelog author will not be considered NMUs. Thanks, Bas Wijnen -- I encourage people to send encrypted e-mail (see http://www.gnupg.org).
