You honestly think that a report on an old version of the software 
posted to the developers list by someone who didn't read the existing 
documentation is a "good report"?

Really?  Maybe I should start posting usability reviews of rocket design 
software.  After all I have no clue how it works and I'm sure they 
should jump to implement my suggestions.

There's a huge difference between usability testing and Joe random 
spouting off about crap he doesn't understand.  Hell even Tivo comes 
with a manual.  If he had said something to the effect of "the 
documentation"  doesn't make this clear it might have carried more 
weight but he didn't even read the documentation.
