I thought about that, too. It is possible in theory, by sending the HTTP POST etc.is there any way to interact with the sf.net tracker and get FC to acctually submit the bug it's self?
However, there is a catch: to submit the item, the user has to be logged in on the sourceforge site. So, you'd also have to query the users SF.net username and password, then authenticate to the site, store the cookie you get from it, then submit the bug report.
While that is certainly possible, it's not trivial at all... It would be easier if we would not require users to be logged in in order to submit bug reports, but we made very bad experiences in the past with allowing everybody anonymously reporting bugs. From wild insults to bug reporters that after submitting their problem never talked again to us (to give us the additional details one often needs). So I am not very happy about the idea of changing that policy again.
