My view on filing bugs is that in general its better to file a bug if you are uncertain as to whetherr it merits a bug report or not with the following understanding: - just because a bug is filed doesnt always mean we can or will fix it. Sometimes people ask for things that will require many man hours to to and offer little reward to work ratio benifit when compared to the other issues int he queue. Also some things are simply not fixable due to whatever technical reason. - sometimes we dont fix a bug because the users vision of how QGIS should behave doesnt match ours. Hey we are all humans it can happen... - always check that your bug has not already been filed by someone else since dealing with duplicate tickets causes a lot of time wasting. - always provide contact details and make sure you are subscribed to the ticket entry (either by adding yourself to CC field or by logging in before filing the ticket). - dont be offended if we dont see tickets as having the same priority as you do. While we appreciate its inconvenient if some issue prevents you doing your work, we need to take the big picture view of things and focus on things that affect the largest proportion of our user base.
