No one forces you to do bugzilla triage. If you prefer, please spend your
efforts coding and let others handle bugzilla.

Not all invalid bugs were immediately invalid on filing, but instead were
determined, e.g., to be a driver bug that wine exposes. Other bugs that could
potentially be closed as invalid after the first comment were instead fixed,
because someone asked for logs and helped the user to get a valid bug report.
Many current active bug reporters have started by filing "invalid" bug reports
(myself included), but are now a very valuable resource of valid, targeted
bugs.

It's like my grandmother used to say, "If you don't have anything nice to say,
don't say anything at all."
