Bug Description
When trying to assign bug 601466 to jelmer via +editstatus (javascript is disabled), launchpad rejected the change with "There is 1 error in the data you entered. Please fix it and try again", and "Constraint not satisfied" round the 'Assigned to' text input field. I am not in a group with admin rights to the bzr-pipeline project.
Tried the same thing on production rather than edge a few minutes later, and it worked fine.

Hi, thanks for reporting this bug. Clearly, our form validation needs to return a better error here. The behavior is expected now, though, since we changed our assignment code to only allow bug supervisors for a project to assign bugs to other people. However, this will be a very low priority for us to fix, since the majority of users never see this page by using the JavaScript widget on the bug page itself.
Cheers,
