I don't think so. Many people want to report - let me say - mistakes,
unexpected results or so. Have a look to all the foren. But where is the
place?

That is the right point. I think a "normal" user won't be able to handle
this moloch called "bugreport" and don't want to write a fault report in
an other language than his native. He searches for a place to report it
easily, looks on the webpage and then get off. He won't contribute.

So IMHO we have to develope an UI on the webpage which supports the
normal user to get off his information and helps us to sort this
information effectively. And so I think Loic's and Christoph's interface
can help for this and will be a first step.
An other way would be a contact formular. But this must be moderated and
will be an open door for spamming.
