Christoph's design is great.  I like, particularly, the clear distinction
between reporting a bug and offering an idea or suggestion.

The point I do want to raise is how the bug/problem reporting functionality
will work with an OS like Ubuntu that already has its own bug reporting
procedures.  Many apps there have a Help > Report a Problem option which
calls Ubuntu's own bug reporting package (apport) to collect system
information and then connect to the Launchpad bug reporting web page.
Launchpad looks for possible duplicates and has quite extensive links to
synchronise with upstream bug reporting.  Here is an example of a bug I
reported.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/df-libreoffice/+bug/433563

Currently, with no functionality built in to LibreOffice, this would be
reported from the command line (ubuntu-bug libreoffice).  As you can see,
it is linked to both the LO and OOo upstream bug trackers.
