Yes. It is intended to be a TODO list. When I call debbugs-gnu, I choose
the pseudo-severity "tagged", and I get my list. In any bug list, you
can toggle this local tag by "t".

In debbugs, there is the attribute "owner" you can set and
filter. However, it isn't used in the Emacs bug handling. But nobody
prevents you to use that attribute for bugs you declare your
reponsibility.

There is also debbugs-gnu-search, which applies a full text search. See
the manual, (info "(debbugs-ug)")
