Spent some time testing this evening and in fact it already sort of work.

See:

M-x debbugs-gnu-search
bookmark RET
subject RET
bookmark RET
date RET
2025-01-01 RET
2025-12-31 RET
status RET
pending RET
RET

Then M-x debbugs-gnu-show-last-result and C-x r m (bookmark-set) Emacs bugs
(pending) about "bookmark" (2025) RET. And a bookmark is saved with the
parameters:

 (debbugs-gnu-current-filter
  (pending . "pending"))
 (debbugs-gnu-current-query
  (subject . "bookmark")
  (@cdate 1735686000 . 1767135600)
  (phrase . "bookmark"))

 No bug id saved.

Works also with submitter key but had to edit the bookmark by hand since I
didn't find a way to generate the correct search using debbugs commands.

I'll try to improve the default bookmark name in order to take phrase and
subject into account (right now only bugs and package keys are used to
build the bookmark name).

Open to any improvement you have in mind.

Regards,
