novice users (and we can also argue that probably such category should not file bug reports but instead seek advices on debian-users ml or other similar forums, due to low quality of theirs reports) should check bugs on the bts before filing another one; so they could check reportbug bugs list too. > How user can now that its few pages long bug report will just dissaper, > to find that he/she should use text interface.

Concluding, if you're really interested in providing help, then try to pin-point the problem: i'd be more than happy to review patches, or providing support; if instead you're only interested in complaining that this would be my last reply to you.
