Just another datapoint, my personal policy here is:
a) ask the reporter if they could report it upstream, as they will be
able to answer questions and advocate for their bug much better that I
can in some cases.
b) If they say no, and I agree it's a bug/issue that should be
addressed, then I report it upstream and try to bridge between fedora
reporter and upstream. If something breaks down, too bad.
