14 I don't like this idea, it doesn't look like a solution but rather like
15 an ugly work-around to me. I agree that some things should be handled
16 outside bugzilla, but bugs belong to bugzilla. We already have a tool to
17 track bugs, setting up another one wouldn't help reducing bugs, it'd
18 rather cost us even more time (you have to check two sources for
19 informations) and there will be more duplications. All in all, it looks
20 like twice the effort for the same result to me.
