Currently the DTD specifies that the bug_id element is required, yet you are
able to "excludefield=bug_id" and the system will not send the bug_id element,
which makes invalid XML.

Two solutions - make bug_id optional in the DTD or not allow you to remove the
bug_id element from the XML output.

I would say bug_id should always be present.
