 Things I can think of:

- Automatic selecting of the radiobutton for "reassign bug to owner of 
selected component" whenever the product/component change. People sometimes 
forget this and since I often query on bug owner instead of component, I 
don't see bugs "reassigned" to me.

- Automatic adding of the commenter to CC field if they're not there yet, for 
hopefully obvious reasons. This would probably need a checkbox to make it 
simple to disable (although clearing the CC lineedit is not that much work 
either).

- Automatic selecting of the accompanying radiobutton when entering something 
in the duplicate lineedit, just like it happens with the resolution 
radiobutton. Not really important :) but somewhat annoying.

- Maximum size limit on comments, pointing to attachments when exceeded. I'd 
sometimes kill when people directly paste 200-lines backtraces, especially if 
it's only a lot of ??'s.

- And the already-mentioned NEEDINFO resolution that'd allow one to close the 
bugreport and never bother with it anymore unless the reporter actually 
replies. Having a list of bug numbers and dates of the last question in the 
todo file feels somewhat lame.
