There are two issues I can foresee: 1) Most existing bug trackers require user registration. This could be worked around by filing anonymous bug reports under some dummy user. 2) For more users, they don't necessarily know what to file the bug under. If they have a Ubuntu machine and there is a bug in evince translation, I doubt they will know that the file has to be filed under "GNOME". If there is one thing a user will know for sure, it is the target language. Also, it is much easier to market one place where a user can file any free software complaint (only one place to remember) than remember sites for tons of different projects. So my initial idea was that this tracker ir language centric, not project centric.
