John,

I agree very much that a better bug reporting/tracking system is
needed.  Bugzilla may be the best choice despite its drawbacks.  I have used
it for bug reporting a number of times and its cumbersome behavior will
probably discourage some people.

But, it should be possible to to provide within octave the first steps of
opening  bugzilla  in the user's browser and making the background 
configuration,
etc., data available.

If I can find anything that might be better than bugzilla I will say so 
soon.
