Not if http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/Contributors and
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/NewPackageProcess point to two
slightly different forms.
The NewPackageProcess page points newbies in large and friendly letters
to the Contributors page, and I believe first-timers who'll still choose
to follow the NewPackage process, will already be in some trouble.

Well, the submitter usually clicks on a link instead of entering the
bugzilla form's URL directly. We only need to make sure that first-time
submitters use the first link, with the already-sponsored people's link
only linked to from somewhere more hidden in the wiki.
