Now I understand the confusion :-)

https://bugassistant.libreoffice.org/libreoffice/bug/bug.html?skin=description

shows no template because it shows content that has been modified. If you go to

https://bugassistant.libreoffice.org/libreoffice/bug/bug.html?skin=version

and chose a version, or try to fill a bug at

https://bugassistant.libreoffice.org/libreoffice/bug/bug.html


you will see the following template:

Problem description:

Steps to reproduce:
1. ....
2. ....
3. ....

Current behavior:

Expected behavior:

which is so close to what you described that I thought you were talking about improving it. I apologize for the confusion.

Cheers
