If someone can write a paragraph on their blog or this list
complaining about a problem, then yes, they have the time to open an
issue on the bug tracker.
I've tried twice to register with the bug tracker -- including
just before sending this post. Both times I got something like
this:
Subject: Failed issue tracker submission
From: Python tracker <roundup-ad...@psf.upfronthosting.co.za>
Date: Wed, 06 Mar 2013 00:56:44 +0000
An unexpected error occurred during the processing
of your message. The tracker administrator is being
notified.
So, it's not all that easy to report bugs for me, anyway. I'd
given up, prior, but reading this thread I thought I'd try one
more time.
I had wanted to report doc bugs, too, as I used to do copy and
line editing. I seem to be able to find typos and such rather
easily, but reporting said bugs -- not so easy.
Something seems amiss, I'd say. It may be just me, but the point
still stands.

You'll be delighted to know that everybody will have to sign a
contributor agreement if they're supplying a patch file on the bug
tracker, see
http://blog.python.org/2013/03/introducing-electronic-contributor.html
and http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2013-March/124540.html
