If it is impossible to assign a bug to a package, then that is something
we should fix eventually.

If it is possible, then please let's not hassle the initial poster of a
bug.  Instead of trying to insist that they get the bug report correct
at the beginning, let's focus on the ability to re-assign a bug to a
different package later on.  Bug reports are a precious resource and
every tiny barrier means there are fewer we will have.
