I was thinking of something a bit like the php.net bugs list where it 
shows you a list of similar bugs before you can submit your bug. 
(however make it a bit easier to use...)

In this case we could do:
*********************Step 1 - Select Package*******************

[Choose your package [v]]
[Enter a summary]   [Go]

*********************Step 2 - See if it's already 
reported****************************

Is you bug/enhancement already reported below, if not press the report 
button at the bottom of the page.

-----------------------------------------------------------
Show the standard bug search results (based on summary text)
-----------------------------------------------------------
[Report Bug / Enhancement] --> goes to report page...

*********************Step 3 - Fill in details ****************************

....

Regards
Alan
