I was thinking of something a bit like the php.net bugs list where it shows you a list of similar bugs before you can submit your bug. (however make it a bit easier to use...)
In this case we could do:
*********************Step 1 - Select Package*******************
[Choose your package [v]]
[Enter a summary] [Go]
*********************Step 2 - See if it's already reported****************************
Is you bug/enhancement already reported below, if not press the report button at the bottom of the page.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Show the standard bug search results (based on summary text)
-----------------------------------------------------------
[Report Bug / Enhancement] --> goes to report page...
*********************Step 3 - Fill in details ****************************
....
Regards
Alan

Pictures/explaining please?
