Yes, JIRA allows for almost any sort of customization.
In a way, JIRA is overkill for our needs, as we only have one
product (packman), and only a very few fields anyway.
But still, it's quite powerful and convenient to use in my
experience.

The one feature which might be useful is for JIRA or Bugzilla to
have a field that is filled from the list of packages that exist
in our OBS instance, but that would require implementing a
plugin etc... -- no time for that right now.
A plain text field should be good enough anyway :)
