purplecatI've picked a second bug to work on (2154) and I've realised there are basically two approaches to fixing it, one involves leaving the current interface as it is and building some (probably simple but potentially ugly) smarts into the code and the other involves getting a bit more info from the user up front.
So this is partly a question about which approach is preferable, but more generally a question about the appropriate place to have this kind of discussion. Should I use the comments in bugzilla, for instance? Similarly were I to pick the route that involved fiddling with the user interface, should screen shots of the potential new interface go into bugzilla for sign off (or review or ???) before a patch file is generated?
