Is Bugzilla bugged?

It's probably just me, but, I have gone round and round this morning trying to 
find a way to enter a new bug. I have always found bugzilla quirky, but this 
AM it's got me. It presents me with page after page of not fully explained 
ways to search existing bugs, but  I can't seem to ever arrive at the page 
where you can enter a new bug...am I just going senile?

If anyone is interested, the issue I'm having is that systemsettings' login 
manager under the advanced tab used to prompt me for the root password before 
allowing changes. It's not doing that now and all I get is grayed-out options. 
I can get around it by running systemsettings from a root prompt, but, I'm 
assuming that's not a new 'feature'...

I can understand the system wanting to make you search diligently for existing 
bugs one can add their voice to, or find a resolution to their issue in, but, 
it seems to have become much harder to finally arrive at new bug reporting 
page...

Problem:
Open System Settings
Click on Advanced tab
Click on Login Manager

all settings are grayed out for me - there seems to be no method offered, or 
prompted, to change to root

Running F11 with all latest updates; Fedora + updates + updates-testing and 
all KDE-Redhat repos are enabled - did a big KDE update just last night.
