Package: reportbug
Version: 3.18
Severity: wishlist
After a bug report has been editing, reportbug prompts whether the report
should be sent now. If not, the message is saved to a temporary directory
and the program edits.
That's fine, but I'd like to be able to "pick up where I left off"; it'd be
nice if reportbug supported a --resume option. I don't want to have to go
through the BTS querying, new version checks, picking a subject and
severity and all that jazz when I've already got a pre-populated bug report
whose human-authored parts of the message body may just need to be edited.
I can think of two ways of implementing it:
* --resume takes an argument, a path to a saved bug report draft
* --resume takes no argument, and instead reportbug searches $TMPDIR for
filenames matching the template it uses ("reportbug-$packagename-etc."),
giving the user a menu and permitting them to select which report they want
to resume.
Either would satisfy my needs.
