I have not meant to be a bug list, but a problem list. It shouldn't
contain every bug that appears, but only those that are likely to occur
for the average user. If I click on the properties button, I expect a
dialog to appear. If it doesn't I wonder what's the problem. So I want
to have a place to look for these issues. If it doesn't appear there I
can still search bugzilla. But I don't want to search bugzilla and read
to all the commentaries to find the reason and the potential fix buried
therein.
For example the cdrecord and kernel 2.6.8 problem. There are several
places on the web where users ask the question, sometimes there is no
information about the correct reason of the problem, sometimes there is.
Wouldn't be nice to have a complete description and resolution in a
central place, so that users could FIRST read these and then look
otherwhere.
