There are many times I report a bug or feature, in other projects, and
the main developers are working too hard on other parts of the project.
(Openoffice is just not working on a feature I requested 3 years ago.)
The biggest reason I see a tracker as useful is because I want to
contribute.  I can see a list of bugs, and can contribute by helping
triage and report on them.  I can report a bug and see when it really is
fixed, or when it needs to be tested.  It's so much more organized, and
most OSS contributers don't sign up for the emailing list of all
software they have bugs in and use, they report the bugs, as they have
to pick and choose the projects they can fully contribute to.  Many
people have to focus on using the product so much they must have a quick
way to contribute the bug report or they simple can't do it at all.
To me, this is part of the maturing OSS project.
