Is there any easy way to add keyword? Raise request in mailing list? I don't think it's efficient way. IMHO we need a mechanism/rule to let bug reporter/QA/Dev to add keyword which doesn't appear in the list. Change it to editable field?
In Bugzilla as of version 4.2 (which we are using) there is no easy way to add versions, milestones, components, products, extra fields, keywords, custom flags, etc. for anyone except for administrators.
In my opinion the list of keywords should be limited. If there were more than e.g. a hundred keywords then their benefit would be lost. We should try to keep them "orthogonal": distinct and non-overlapping.
BTW, I'd like to request adding following keyword to identify MS Office file format issue: MS 2003 MS 2007 MS 2010
That sounds like a reasonable request and if nobody objects I'll be happy to add them. There is already a keyword ms_interoperability though that overlaps. Eventually we should rename the requested keywords to interop_ms2003, interop_ms2007 and interop_ms2010 to show their main purpose of ensuring interoperability with other document processors.
