On the plus side it would be much easier to find duplicate bugs since the titles would be uniform.

I think this is an interesting point. I'd like to have something like a specialised bug system for ebuilds, where you have to enter the package category, package name, package version and where the bug happens (configure, compile, test, install, execution). Then it would be much easier to look up for example all bugs concerning test errors or all bugs of glibc with compile errors. If a bug belongs to several categories, it should be able to post it in several categories. But at the moment there are some things you shouldn't have to search for because there are too many bugs with that name in the topic or somewhere else which have nothing to do with that specific package (unfortunately i cannot tell an example, but that happend to me more than once, i always filed a new bug then because i did not find anyting and sometimes t was a duplicate).
