it seems highly unlikely, given the GTK+ UI it's just a graphical
layer over the same methods used by the cli reportbug (so either it's
broken even the cli or there's something else).

Anyhow, (all) please stop using this thread for reporting semi-bugs,
suggestions for reportbug or so: use the bts reporting bugs against
reportbug (with proper severity), as some already did. So Neil, please
report that as a bug, if you feel like it.

don't expect me to read and follow-up on any email on this thread if
you don't cc me explicitly requesting comments.
