On using the bugfixarchive tool

I've just installed this tool for the first time and have a few
suggestions for the developers.

First - great idea!

The UI needs a bunch of work. Using the 'mini-menu' is tedious. Buttons!
Exactly the sort of thing buttons were made for. Please include all the
needed tags. The summary editor ought to be a simple text field. The
name(s) of attachment(s) should be shown in a little (preferably
selectable) list at the bottom.

Attachment reading - could someone please take a look and see what the
name of the attachment file in
email-file-repository/swiki.gsug.org/sqfixes/3378-attachments is? It
_should_ be 2003-06-05 (simulator fixes).zip but came out on my machine
as just 2003-06-05 and the string in the image was '2003-06-05{char 32}
(simulator{char 97}fixes).zip which seems a bit odd. I suspect that
somewhere I need to do more badChar checking.

Email formatting - see apparent complaint in mailheader attached to my
first mail:-

Looks like the mail code needs a few changes.

Logic is neither an art or a science but a dodge.
