Changing the default of Qt Print Support to "Unassigned" sounds
reasonable in this case. How does this occur?

Also, Qt 3D tickets are auto-assigned to Sean Harmer who hasn't been
active in ~1.5 years [1]. Mike Krus has been manually taking recent
tickets [2] and has privately expressed willingness to take Sean's
place -- I'd like to nominate Mike as default assignee for Qt 3D. As
far as I'm aware, the formal procedure for this and the eligibility
criteria are not specified in any QUIP -- does it make sense to add
Jira default assignees to QUIP 2?
