Two years on, nothing happened. I must say, I don't really see the point
of this feature request.

Ubuntu is almost NEVER shipping the current VLC version. The upstream
VideoLAN project will ignore any bug not reported against the latest VLC
version, so it is not possible for Ubuntu users to file bugs there.

So that leaves Launchpad. But then there's two problems: First, it would
have to be an Ubuntu specific patch to VLC. Second, my experience
sorting hundreds of Ubuntu VLC shows that nobody actually takes REAL
care of VLC bugs in Launchpad. So directing users there is basically a
waste of time.

So overall, I don't see the point of a Bug report menu item, unless you
want it to show "Sorry, you cannot do that".
