You raise an important issue, Jean.

There should be some other very easy way. These are not programmers, they
are not used to filling in bug reports.

What about having a special simple "post" report-form that would be
moderated and only true reports would be then forwarded to the new
discussion system - with some kind of confirmation to the reporter?
There could be a drop-down with a list of entities the bug refers to (UI,
help, wiki, guides) and a text field to describe the error (and a possibly
a field with http of page reference).

It would simplify the process for the reporter (i.e a user) and add some
load to the moderator, yes. The moderator could then forward the report
(with additional info) as a bug report into bugzilla, as well.

If this is all overhead, then we should generate a mail account, like
report.err...@documentation.libreoffice.org and users should write an
e-mail describing the problem they found. The moderator would the forward
them to the new list.
