And, of course, Bugzilla just screams out that you need to free type 
'FutureFeature' into the 'Keywords' to specify that. It would too obvious 
to have a set of radio boxes in the form instead of a link to a page 
listing all the possible keywords with no real hint as to the fact that it 
is in fact a structured field.

:/

I am reminded of a 'in the basement inside a locked filing cabinet in a 
disused lavatory with a sign saying Beware of the leopard.'
