There should be a quiz feature that allows bug owners to create a quiz for a particular bug. This quiz would be prefaced by information, and upon reading the information, the user would take the quiz. Once the user passed the quiz, he or she would be allowed to comment in the bug from then on. This could be used for extreme cases, like in bug 25537 where the signal to noise ratio is very low. Filing uncomfirmed so the bug gets seen by triagers who would most be influenced by it.

Reassigning bugs that I'm not actively working on to the default component owner in order to try to make some sanity out of my personal buglist. This doesn't mean the bug isn't being dealt with, just that I'm not the one doing it. If you are dealing with this bug, please assign it to yourself.

I guess this is just a humorous take on the frustrations of "drinking from the firehose", right? You cannot possibly be serious about this, can you?

Yes, that's not something we are going to implement. This is completely counter-productive.

*shrug*. we have a problem, we don't have a solution. potential solutions are welcome until we solve the problem.
