I think it could work, but it's not that easy to implement :)
Currently the hook code blindly sends an email to
bug-control@bugs.kde.org, it's all asynchronous. It doesn't know if an
account exists, or what Bugzilla does with that email once received.
To know if an account exists, we would need to make it use the
Bugzilla API...
