Hmm, I think I agree with the navibar.ent change, but not the header.ent 
change - this was actually deliberate.  See r45385.

Pointing people to the information page rather than the "submit a bug" 
page directly was intended to be much more user-friendly than the Bugzilla 
"you must log in or register" to do this page, which is a pretty awful 
introduction to reporting a bug.  Instead, they were taken to a page which 
encoraged them to search the PR database first, provided guidance for how 
to submit a good bug report, explained why registering/logging in was 
necessary, etc.

I think I'd rather see the header.ent URL change reverted (though 
the "Bug-report" -> "Bug Report" change is a good one).

Thanks,

Gavin
