And that's what I'm doing by making my point: Raising the awareness of the issue. Notice several other people have also commented on similar situations, so I'm not alone. Awareness has been raised and someone pointed out that some DDs are posting on this thread. While that may be like preaching to the choir (the ones participating in a thread like this are obviously showing enough interest that they're not the ones ignoring or being short with bug reporters), at least there are some who are seeing several people comment on this issue and there's always a good chance they may bring the situation up with other DDs. Since it seems clear that some of us feel DDs don't care about user comments and bug reports, perhaps if some DDs themselves bring this up when it can be discussed with other DDs, it might make a difference.
