[QGIS-Developer] Moving plugin creator to be a collaborator, not maintainer?

Hi!

Some weeks ago I created a new OSGeo account to bundle our QGIS plugins 
under a common, shared account. The account became available as 
potential collaborator/maintainer in plugins.qgis.org once I used it to 
log in there.

Now I want to use this account as Maintainer of multiple plugins. And I 
want to add the original Plugin Creators as Collaborators to their plugin.

That does not seem possible though? Before I make a bug report, maybe I 
am simply doing it wrong:

Original plugin creator: Bob
New main account: Alice

- Bob creates a plugin
- Bob adds Alice as Collaborator
- Bob switches Maintainer to Alice
- Bob saves
- Bob is still able to "manage" the plugin even though Bob is not listed 
under Collaborators or as Maintainer anymore
- Bob can not add Bob as Collaborator (Bob is not shown in the dropdown 
list) but he could set Bob as Maintainer again (Bob is marked "Plugin 
creator" in the dropdown list)
- Alice is Maintainer now
- Alice also can not add Bob as Collaborator, but could set him as 
Maintainer

Is there another way? Or is the plugin creator simply accidentally 
excluded as potential collaborator?

Cheers, Hannes
