Why do we report bugs?

[Pau Capdevila]

Hi,

A flower doesn't make spring says a crude translation of a local saying in 
my country.

How many bugs have you filed that have been taken into account within hours?

Yes, one time I was replied with a won't fix. It's quite disappointing but 
the developer has it's rights to decide it's priorities in it's free/libre 
work.

Maybe there should be a way to discuss the bug with a broader audience in 
order to assume it if the main developer is focused on other things. Just to 
aknowledge the reporting task.
