when Doctor gives you the "Doctor - review changes to 
http://www.mozilla.org/blah/blah.html" page, it provides the following link:
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=mozilla.org&component=CVS+Account+Request&version=other&rep_platform=All&op_sys=All&short_desc=webtree+CVS+account+for+%3Cyour+name+here%3E+-+%3Cyour+email+address+here%3E&comment=%3CEnter+a+description+of+what+you+would+like+to+edit+on+the+web+site+here.++Note%0D%0Athat+you+need+someone+who+already+has+access+to+vouch+for+you.%3E

this link doesn't behave as expected.

What went wrong?

Comment 2

[Dave Miller [:justdave]]

I just tested it...   it doesn't work if you don't have canconfirm privs,
because it dumps you into the guided version of enter_bug, and the guided
version apparently doesn't pre-fill from the passed parameters (other than product)

Comment 3

[Myk Melez [:myk] [@mykmelez]]

It should be possible to specify the non-guided version even for users without
canconfirm via the format parameter.  I've filed bug 218219 on that.

Comment 4

[Myk Melez [:myk] [@mykmelez]]

I hacked support for specifying the default format (bug 218219) into b.m.o and
updated the links in Doctor to do the right thing:

Checking in review.tmpl;
/cvsroot/mozilla/webtools/doctor/templates/review.tmpl,v  <--  review.tmpl
new revision: 1.8; previous revision: 1.7
done

Fixed by that checkin.
