In my experience, it's only possible to mark an Ubuntu bug for a series if the individual has upload rights to at least one Ubuntu package in the bug report.
Otherwise, if the individual is at least a member of ~ubuntu-bug-control, he can nominate the bug for a series. [1] This is insufficient for a bug that gets marked Fix Released when it is fixed in the current development series, because a fixed bug is mostly invisible.
I didn't test but it's possible the bug will not show up on the sponsoring queue if a patch is attached when a bug is merely nominated for a series but is otherwise Fix Released.
I propose that ~ubuntu-dev be allowed to mark any bug for a Ubuntu package against an Ubuntu series since there's a decent chance that an Ubuntu developer may be submitting a patch for an SRU or at least suggest that a bug is a candidate for someone to work on an SRU, even if they can't upload the package themselves without sponsoring.

I believe (but didn't test recently that) the bug will not show up on the Sponsoring Queue if the bug is marked Fix Released in all affected Ubuntu series'.
