No. We already do half the company's job by getting assigned all kinds of
problems from kernel to package to installation media content and whatnot (and
we have to prove in every single instance that it's not a YaST bug - guilty
until proven innocent, like in the Wild West). There must be a limit.

This is exactly what we do NOT want. How many microseconds do you think it
would take until people started relying on the YaST team doing all that part,
too? This was one of the first things I added to the Bug Reporting FAQ when I
(!) started writing it 12 (15?) years ago:

https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Report_a_YaST_bug#Isn.27t_it_enough_if_I_tell_you_the_hostname_or_the_IP_of_a_machine_that_had_a_bug_and_you_can_fetch_everything_you_need_from_there_yourself.3F

Most people reporting bugs (in particular the internal ones) could not be
bothered to collect any information, even though I (!) had supplied that
save_y2logs script for exactly that purpose long before that.

I am not going back there.
