IMO, the Bugzilla Helper is unsuitable for anything other than a
technology demo, because it is intentionally very Mozilla specific. I
wouldn't want to change that, because one of the advantages of checking
it in is that we can maintain the Mozilla version in Bugzilla CVS.
"Low-end" doesn't mean clueless end-users, it means people who hold the
"bug entry is a starting point" view I outlined earlier in the thread.
