Only if they knew where in the code the bug was. And if they did, they could just fix it and not report the bug. This is different, because when somone is pointing to an error in a map, that only makes sense in the context of where the error is. If they want to post a bug and they don't know where it is (perhaps "I can't find the city of [nnn] on the map"), then that probably would go in trac.
