I think it's better for bugs to be filed by individuals. That way it's
easy to find the person who filed the bug and talk to him or her
directly. If you want to mention the usability team, do so in the body
of the bug somewhere [e.g. "The usability team discussed this and we
think it is a problem because of foo (see page 42 of the GNOME Human
Interface Guidelines). We think a good solution would be bar."]
