Well, there is talk of setting up more external CVS repositories so
outside developers can get better access. But still, "dumb users" who
aren't developers should use Bugzilla to report the problems. It's the
only way things can be tracked and remembered.
What is the procedure for becoming a developer then?
Regarding large numbers of open bugs, I liked Jef Spaleta's
proposal of
a triage system. Unfortunately, no one commented on his message:

Important/heavy posts usually get no response.
