Well I'm pretty sure upstream is better suited to judge if their component is at fault then the
package maintainer in Fedora or devel.

As a user, it's much more difficult to file a bug upstream:
Each upstream bugzilla:
Almost always requires creating an account
Different projects use different bug-tracking interfaces
Of course, that assumes that the user can find the upstream
project and their bug-tracking system (if any).
The Fedora bugzilla, even if occasionally non-responsive, is
*very* convenient. One can at least see if other users are
experiencing the same issue. And other Fedora users cat
at least leave bug comments that might aid other users
(even if the comment points upstream).
Although far from ideal, I'd put rate Fedora's bugzilla
at several notches above worthwhile.
