I have a dream of a desktop bugzilla client in Fedora. When you find a

this package came from".
Yes! I have this same dream! I really REALLY want to see tighter
integration between Fedora and our bug reporting/tracking stuff. I want:
1) A nice client (maybe built from bug-buddy) for people to quickly and
easily report bugs *without a bugzilla account*.
I personally have a problem with that (maybe it's just the cranky
sysadmin in me):
* If a bug isn't worth a few minutes of your time to create a bugzilla
account, the bug must not be that important. This (IMO, small) barrier
weeds out frivolous reports. Easier bug reporting is nice, but not at
the expense of receiving *good* bug reports.
* Without a bugzilla account, there is no mechanism for further
correspondence/feedback between reporter and developers. I think this
is important too.
