My thinking was always that this was part of the role of the bugsquad, since you can't do a good job processing bugs without understanding user needs, project priorities, etc., Or to put it another way- if bugsquad doesn't have a lot of the same skills as a hypothetical userfeedbacksquad, it isn't a very good bugsquad. But I'd agree that in practice this hasn't always been the case, and recruiting methods for the different groups would probably be radically different (even if they *should* be the same.)
