According to https://woof.bzg.fr/howto, reports can be owned by someone.
However, this information appears to be missing in the report list.
Shouldn't it be there?

I'm requalifying this as feature request.

I'm not sure about this.

I think the important signal here is to know that a task is owned by
someone.  And, if you see a high priority report that is not owned by
anyone, re-asking for someone to help is useful.

But why adding an "owner" column?  

If this is to check what task _I_ own, I can search for o:bzg@bzg.fr.

If this is because I want to ping the owner, I probably simply want to
revisit the thread in my mailer.

I'm not fully opposed to adding a new "owner" column but I don't feel
it, there are already too many column.

I leave this open for further discussion.

I tend to agree, except when one wants to use this information via API.
So, maybe owner does not need to be displayed in web interface, but what
about RSS/ORG/JSON/etc?

I imagine something similar to debbugs ELPA package.

Yes, you're right, at least the json format should expose this data.
