It's perfectly okay to use this list for reporting bugs. Wating for our
bug tracking system to go public... feedback@suse.de is another
possibility, but at this moment the feedback folder is very crowed (=
Linux is very popular.) Burchard (or better: his wife) is expecting
another nice child (their first one, Mona, is great -- but sorry, I'm
digressing).
Please, keep on reporting bugs here; this way, we all can learn a little
bit more about the system :)

You've to know one, who has to know one, who knows Linus ;-)

Should it do so? Perhaps a good idea.

Okay, that's an arguement. Also SuSEconfig might add a version
information.

Yes, ugly -- but fixed by now.
