For the packages in stable it does make sense to report to bugzilla, because the patches to STABLE will be published as YOU update later on. The latter however only applies to bugs, not feature requests, since STABLE will not get any new features.
So it is more beneficial to openSUSE if KDE users test STABLE, instead of Factory or UNSTABLE.
STABLE is important, Factory becomes more important the closer they get to a new openSUSE release. UNSTABLE is completely useless for them, since it is neither part of any released openSUSE version, nor being worked on for a future release. With their limited resources they have to focus on STABLE and openSUSE- specific bugs/features. Further, they cannot be experts for every single application, so the maintainer of that application at bugs.kde.org is likely to have more knowledge and can fix things quicker. Every non-openSUSE-specific bug, should have a report at bugs.kde.org. If it is a really important feature, like e.g. bluetooth support not working at all, or a really importand bug, which might already be fixed upstream (can't think of any ATM), then it does make sense to file it downstream too and add the upstream bug report into the URL field. That way they can keep track of showstoppers before a release and crucial fixes after a release.
