Easy to submit bugs

Hello!
An other possible solution would be, to link to Ubuntu forums in the
nativ language. 
The user post his problem and the forum users try to solve it. When the
forum community 
think that the threat is a bug, somebody write one. This bug would then 
be written by someone how know what he is doing. With all information
needed and 
a security that the bug hasn't already been submitted..
I don't know if this is already the case, but to support this more would
be nice.
