I didn't realize that I could submit issues without an account.  I'll
try to see how well that works in the future.  Although, I still think
that RT is too much of a barrier to entry.  The debian BTS is just so
nice; especially with reportbug and other tools already in widespread
use.

There is an RT command-line interface.  I wonder if this couldn't be
solved fairly easily by writing a wrapper that converts an RT thread
into a new debian BTS thread with a link back to the RT ticket?

I really think the BTS is a much better system.
