Unfortunately I seem to need some special permissions, because I would like to 
file the bugs with status "ASSIGNED" and with Keywords "FutureFeature", 
because this is what the triage SIG wanted for the old FEVer bugs. If I try to 
set the status from "NEW" to "ASSGINED" after the bug is created, I get an 
error that the account does not have the necessary permissions. I also 
specified both when I created the bug, but both were silently not set.

The first bug I created is:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512384

So I guess I need a seperate FAS account for this and apply for fedorabugs or 
is there some other way to do this? The ftbfs bugzilla account is capable of 
changing the status iirc.
