Darn broken bug tracking system.

And, after finally beating a list out of the bug system (do not enter
_anything_ in the filters. Touching the filters at _all_ leads to an empty
list, and it _remembers_ this breakage even if you hit "back", reload, close
the tab and re-type the URL at a fresh one...), I finally got my list of
bugs, and made a dumb little script to wget them all.
The result? Some of the files look like this:
<center><p>Access Denied.</p>[ <a href="main_page.php">Click here to
proceed</a> ]</center>
I have no idea why. No explanation, no nothing. Apparently, the bug system
not only hates konqueror, it doesn't like wget either. Luckily the problem
seems to be intermittent so I _think_ I've got them all downloaded now. As
huge piles of XHTML I have to laboriously chop useful information out of, but
it's something. (Yes, I saw the "export list as CSV". That's not the same
as being able to get it to work.)
You wonder why I've been putting this off? Are you guys seriously telling me
this thing is _not_ breaking left and right for you? Or do you just not use
it much?
