It seems a little like requiring a higher threshhold for saying something bad about Fedora than saying something good which certainly is not a desirable signal to send.
Also remember an anon negative vote can be -1 (Also affected by about mentioned problem), thus no need for a bz entry but it does give us valuable information in that it is not a single user experiencing this problem - for the kernel e.g. this might be affects multiple archs, multiple configurations of hardware, information the anon user might be encouraged to add to the bugzilla report.

Wouldn't those be logged in users though (or at least.. should be). Maybe only
anon negative karma votes should need a bz entry with them?
