In that case, imagine the school's student list has a field called "Letter". Since you surely know what the word "letter" means, what is the difference between students with a Letter value of A10 and those whose Letter value is C1? (Here's a hint: the school's teachers evaluate students using this field.) > I want a better bug reporting UI as much as anyone, but KDE's sysadmins are > in the middle of the GitLab transition and there is no bandwidth available > for improving Bugzilla at this point in time.

There is unfortunately no new version of Bugzilla. Any of the options you mentioned will take a lot of time to implement if it is chosen. In the meantime, rather than discouraging any request for improvement in the Bugzilla path, I recommend you add a warning to reporters against bugs.kde.org, with a link to more information on your prediction. In any case, if you are implying that a future Bugzilla version already has this issue solved, please indicate so explicitly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
