[Semi-OT] Trackers in Bugzilla?

In Bugzilla installations I have used before, such as Mozilla's own, a
fairly common phenomenon is tracker bugs, aka meta bugs.
These are issues filed not to report specific bugs or request specific
features, but to group together related bugs. For some examples of what
I'm on about, see

This is useful for issues with some aspect of a product smaller than a
component. Or for creating groups of some nature for which a component
or keyword isn't exactly appropriate. Moreover, anybody can create
trackers, whereas only an administrator can modify the list of keywords
or components.
I had just been thinking about filing a tracker or two in our Bugzilla,
but I thought I should ask here first. Does anybody here have any
problems with this?
