IMHO, you have to be careful that the approval process doesn't introduce excess delays because otherwise you'd encourage even more security updates not to be marked as such (and if you implement the automarking when a security bug is referenced, also missing Bugzilla references to avoid the security marking), which would be counterproductive.
How about retroactively reclassifying an update as a security update? This would work, the only problem being that the Changelog of a package initially unmarked would have no reference to CVE, unless the reclassifying triggers a rebuild of the update.
Pointless. The update mails would also not be marked [SECURITY].
