I agree it's a hassle to file a bug report, specially when you have to
stop your "batch mode" (to quote Knuth[1]). And I agree these bug
reports are very important for us to translate correctly.

Even worse: it seems that providing a patch makes a lot of difference in
having the bug fixed. Those issues should be trivial to fix for
developers and yet very important for translators, but sometimes were
are left without a reply for months (or years). Providing a patch means
that a translator must learn SVN, check out the source code, and
actually read and try to understand it. Does anyone here think it is
reasonable to expect this from a translator?
