That's a whole other issue -- it would sure be nice if the "mail out  
bug report" button actually sent a nice clean and formatted text  
report to both a special "bugs" mailing list, and directly into the  
bug reporting system.  Having to jump out into a whole other world to  
report bugs, and without even any good tools to create formatted  
detailed bug reports, makes it a whole lot harder to do.  I really  
don't like web-only interfaces for anything either, and especially not  
bug tracking systems.  Well formatted plain text with full e-mail  
gateways seems to make the best foundation for such systems, and web  
interfaces can be built on top as desired.  GNATS is a good example.
