Bodhi allows resubmitting an update with different packages?!

It confuses the people who put in the effort to test your packages.  I
updated to NetworkManager-0.8.0-4.git20100325.fc12.x86_64 and hit bugs
576925 and 578141.  I wanted to leave negative feedback on the update,
but I could not find one for that package version.  It took me a minute
to realize that you had edited the update to contain newer packages.
Edits also break the links that the update system posts on Bugzilla,
such as the ones here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=573510#c2

How hard is it to use Bodhi properly?
