But when there is no way to check if people checked with a newer version, nagging them to do something which the possibly already did will cause irritation and confusion. > I excluded the enhancement request because of one reason: I don't > understand why we allow people to file an enhancement request, because > a) The developer codes features he likes / would like to have b) We > create deceitful hopes, because the submitter thinks we will implement > every feature request (This paragraph = My opinion) The feature request fantasies need an outlet and as long as we can separate them in queries, its fine to have them on bugzilla. Also it is a good way to bring together people with a common interest (a feature), resulting in product improvement. > Why isn't it trivial to set the version to the one used at the moment > of bug submission Because there are a lot of bugs checked with multiple versions (but not all) by multiple reporters. In a ideal world, "version" wouldnt be a field, but a list of all the versions and then a BUGREPORTED/CANTREPRODUCE/UNTESTED tristate. It would star with all in UNTESTED, with the expception of the reporters version -- which is BUGREPORTED. Others could then add too that.
