Bug ID: 413346
Summary: Users have no way to flag issues affecting them
Product: bugs.kde.org
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: sysad...@kde.org
Reporter: chea...@gmail.com
CC: she...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Using KDE means dealing with lots of issues. Over the years, I've flagged 95
issues which must have affected me at the time I voted for them, by casting a
vote for them. It is often useful for a user to see a list of issues affecting
him, in order to compare products, to determine if a product can be
recommended, or just to find a ticket when he remembers having seen an issue
reported before.
Unfortunately, bugs.kde.org does not really allow that. Voting can somewhat
play that role, but:
1. All products only allow a limited number of votes, so a user cannot flag as
many issues as needed.
2. Voting has a meaning and should not be used only for the purpose of flagging
an issue.
3. Some products do not even allow voting.
Please provide a way for users to flag any ticket affecting them, and a page
listing such flagged tickets. The page could be named "Issues affecting me".
"My Bugs" should probably be renamed "Issues I reported" to avoid confusion.
One extra benefit of such an addition is to allow reporting how many users are
affected by an issue and who they are. However, privacy must be considered here
- perhaps users should be given the choice to publish the issues affecting them
or not.
