Re: official bugreport (because of bugzilla)

Hi Melodramus,

We have a bugzilla because it is very useful. It helps us track all
the information related to a bug. Already your bug has spawned several
emails and suggestions. If it was all in bugzilla is would be easy to
see the history of the bug with all the information collected in one
place. Furthermore we can group attachments like screenshot and
example documents demonstrating a bug in place. We know when a bug is
fixed and verified to be fixed.

All in all it makes everyone's life easier.

Cheers

Martin
