User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:5.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/5.0 Build ID: 20110615151330 Steps to reproduce: http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/tip/en/html/api/Bugzilla/WebService/Bug.html says: 0 Unknown 1 Free Text 2 Drop Down 3 Multiple-Selection Box 4 Large Text Box 5 Date/Time 6 Bug Id 7 Bug URLs ("See Also") But in reality it is not valid. E.g. 'keywords' has type 8, and some other fields have 0. Expected results: Documentation should be updated.

Uh, hmm. Some fields do have special field types. In general, the field types should only be relied on for custom fields, at the moment, so perhaps we should document that fact (or at least document that for many non-custom fields, the field types are not accurate).
