Just so you know - bugs reported by ubuntu-bug, that could possibly 
contain personal information - get marked Private, the only people able 
to access such bugs are the one reporting and bug control

Of course if someone manually reported a bug containing that - and 
didn't know - a likely scenario considering the people attracted to 
*buntu - would leave their personal information free for anyone to read.

Your choice - you report manually if you want, I've not the time to 
read, nor try to find out how to read all of the many files that help to 
narrow down the cause of a bug.

I'll use the tool.
