Yes, Lorenzo is right. Good bug reports on the issue tracker helps us a lot,
and we will periodically search for bugs, reproduce and log internally.
There's currently a lot of noise in the bug tracker, so any help we can get
with people writing good bug reports helps a lot - if the bug is in the
format "it doesn't work" it doesn't help us at all.
