I'd suggest nomination by an approver.
This covers both the elevation of a user (based on doing the work in JIRA comments but getting somebody else to press the workflow buttons), and delegation to a team member (for larger development teams e.g. in Nokia/Digia)

The responsibilities of a Triager are less than an Approver, so the nomination process shouldn't be more difficult.
