After you get a reputation for good bug reports and/or
useful bug triage, then you can get permissions to edit bug
reports.

As to how to become a good enough developer... that's tough.
Spending some time writing programs in C would be good practice.  
Even spending some time writing assembly would be useful...
you want to become fluent in the idea that a computer is
a program counter, registers, and a big array of memory.
At which point pointers make sense.    People who have only
programmed in Python or the like are forever going to be
confused by C memory management...
