Carl,
It's very nice that you spelled out the steps, but
you're not getting it. We can't make ordinary mappers go
through those steps just to submit a problem report.
They need a link to a single page that has the words
"Problem Report" at the top. They fill in the blanks and
hit "Submit."
Otherwise, we'll lose them. They'll just give up, and
we'll never know what issues are happening.
Charlotte

I'm no coder and here is my step by step recipe for iD bug reporting:
Visit https://github.com/ and "Sign up" (the platform is independent from
OSM and HOT so you'll need to create a new account first). When
successfully logged in just follow this procedure:
1. on the upper left is a search bar ("Search GitHub"): type 'iD'
and click "enter" on your keyboard
2. in the list of search results click on "openstreetmap/iD" (should
be the first item)
3. click on "Issues" (navigation bar on the right)
4. click on "New issue" (green button)
5. choose a good title and write your problem description
6. click on "Submit..."
Done!
