You pretty much ask users to stop filing bugs. If a user can provide  
all information needed, he can track down the problem him self, so a  
bug database would melt down to a helpdesk for willing and  
experienced developers.

Each bug filed contains a snippet of information, at least "something  
doesn't work here". Each bug closed because of incompleteness says "I  
ignore your work" to the filing person. Unless you redefine "closed"  
from "problem solved" to "no interest in working on the problem", of  
course.

As for the solution - missing resources are a pretty bad excuse to  
throw away user's contributions. There is no way but to sort the mess  
and perhaps to refine the search tools.


Perhaps this is slightly overexposed, but so far my european 2 cent.
