In [1] Brian got a bit caught out when he missed the text on the bug
reporting form that says:

"By submitting a bug through this form you agree that all contents of
the bug report, including your personal information as listed, will be
posted to the public pgsql-bugs mailing list, and archived in the
public list archives."

I figured that could have been much worse than it was.

Maybe it's not worth spending too many cycles for people that bypass
the warning text, but I thought I'd mention the idea that this could
be backed up by a check box just above the submit and send email
button which has the text "I understand that this report will be
emailed to a public mailing list".  The submit would be disallowed
until the user checks the checkbox.

Does anyone think it's worth adding?

David
