+1 to this. Not a must-have, but it would help encourage *useful*
repro scripts, I think. :D

I would say add single-sign-on options ("login with
github/facebook/twitter") would be nice-to-haves. Report anonymously
would even be fine provided it comes with the caveat "you won't be
able to edit this later, and if we have questions that aren't
answered, your bug may get closed, so check back often".
FWIW, I started toying with the idea to rewrite it earlier this year
and tossed https://github.com/sgolemon/platform-php-web-bugs
together
as a starting point to get a personal version of the site up and
running. (Note: this doesn't include any changes, just a framework for
running the site on a hosting provider.) If nothing else, it should
describe the component pieces you'll need to set it up locally (there
aren't many, but it's effectively a HOWTO guide).
