With the band-aids you outline in place: do you think it would it be beneficial to have a liaison holding users’s hands through the process, _then_ triaging to developers by contacting them with the information they need? (This is something proposed previously on this thread[1], and something I’ve already said I’m willing to do[2][3].) IOW, someone to bridge between end users and developers and (at least try to) help bring some order to the chaos.
