So, anyone on the list who is proficient in a language other than
English - please do help out Noriko :)

Yes, that's what it's intended for.

We don't typically do this, but I'm sure we could make arrangements to
keep an image available for a given time. I think we wind up having a
fairly-recent image available for one reason or another through most of
the process anyway; I'll CC Jesse, who can explain in more detail.
There's usually a recent snapshot or test compose or pre-release or
_something_ available at any given point, right Jesse?

Well, this isn't an option. You just set the release to Rawhide. You can
mention the nightly image date and the specific package version in the
bug report if you like. Generally packagers will ask if they need
anything else.

This I don't know off the top of my head. You could download the latest
nightly and test. If it's not, we can look at fixing that. Frankly the
closing of the bug report seems a little odd to me; if anaconda needs
python-nss to run, it should depend on it, I would think. We shouldn't
have to add it to the live image manually. Unless there's some specific
reason not to put it in the dependencies.
