Well thank you for your generosity my Lord. :)

Because that has popped into mind during normal daily workflow. It's
very common thing you do during communication for lot of people.

Which kind of kills the idea being terribly slow UI action.

> Please do not insult on me. 

Obviously you've no idea how insulting your trashcanning of other's 
thoughts are. You don't even try to look deeper (like your reasoning
proved) or ask more information to understand the issue.

I know how tedious it becomes going through hundreds of entries, 
which will show up in results. Are those results worth of trouble 
then? You could just have one red button too which would delete 
one by one without showing anything.

Sure there is a chaos. This is a community software where project 
denies community participation by not allowing anyone to take part
of cleaning without going through some insider rituals and get selected
for triaging. Neither there is written policy how the bugs should be
processed.

Imo it's quite ridiculous that even the reporter himself can't change
the version nor component. It's even more hilarious, that people who
actually have those rights, often suggest to do so since they themselves
think that people can edit those attributes.

In contrary, I'd be surprised that this wouldn't be a chaos as it is.

Agreed. It's also likely, that not so many people anymore bother to
make searches since it's such a mess.

No doubt there are better ones. That's why there is voting. But where 
do you think it should be stored/reported then? (I'm not even really asking)

I've been doing it a bit and I've been offered those elevated rights
to take part of triaging. IMO it's just waste of time if done by few
people compared to everyone. There should be that written policy for
whole bz and then let everyone do their part of that.

Of course it's being claimed that it won't work here, since it does 
work elsewhere.

If you cant see the difference between a feature request and a bug, 
I surely do think so.
