I love bugzilla. One could even say I'm a little biased about it :) But
it's not the end all and be all. Given the current situation, such a bug
should be nearly immediately NEEDINFOd, since there has been to the best
of my knowledge no testing of what exactly is broken in vte wrt a11y, so
the bug would not have enough information in it to be useful.
