hi,
Notice some discussion on *Priority / Severity* fields, etc.
Perhaps I am the odd-man-out, some clear moments, but also foggy ones. And I do stupid things.
Example: - try to file some bug with a non-cooperative computer.
( It took me a couple of hours to just get past the scrolling area. )
What if ??
the very first package had a name "A_Draft" with some info.
those entries get washed-out in some days, perhaps.
you can relax and if you never have reported before, then
*big-Red-Hat* will not come and "zap" you.
- you receive some notification, maybe with some helpful
guide-lines, and you can return and edit it.
- a 13 year old may have found some odd key-combination that
only those would notice.
- no need to add up the numbers as outstanding bugs. Simply
a scratch pad area.
We've actually had a similar proposal (000_Unknown_Component) bouncing around for a few weeks now, but haven't had a final decision on it. I like your refinements to the idea in theory, but I'm not sure they can be made to work in practice - Bugzilla doesn't necessarily have the capacity to do all those things.
