The answer to both problems is to have a test suit that is very easy for the average user to add code to that's run along with the current auto-tester. What I'm thinking of is somthing like codepad.org where anyone can submit a code sample and where "interested parties" get informed when the results for them change. With that in place, when some one hits a regression it can be added to the (or a) regression suit with just a few clicks. With a bit more work, you could even let people "go back in time" and show that a test case user to run. Heck, I was looking into building exactly that a few months back but real life got in the way.
