or if we made a finkcommander user perhaps or made the sf user
name/password in the configure options I think opening the bug tracker to
the public isn't 100% bad but I think it's fine the way it is now and we'd
need a way to check bugs first to make sure it's not already reported, but
I think in the long run this would benefit us all and I think you'd agree
with that.
