"Not _only_ on the mailing list," I would have agreed with 100%.
Any bug or enhancement request should go in the bug database, but I
believe there can be value in _limited_ discussion in the mailing list
also. For one thing, it will save time for others who run into the same
issue: they won't have to take time searching for what they might have
been done wrong. And others who might report a bug will know that it's
already been done, which will save time for them and reduce duplicate
reports to the developers.
