That may be, but checking if a related bug exists can be a useful
thing.  Granted, there's a way to go to getting our bug tracking
"perfect".

Perhaps not, but you can understand how it can easily be missed in the
noise.  Checking if there is already a bug reported is a good plan.
The backtrace may be quite useful as well.  But I would really like to
see people at least remembering that trac exists, and to use it for
reporting bugs.  There are some people who only ever report bugs here
in this mailing list, which is impossible to track bugs on, and then
get bent out of shape when they don't get fixed.  Your earlier
comments were following that path, and maybe I overreacted :)
