Apple's official word is to always file bug reports on everything ever. Even if they're closed as duplicates, the number of duplicates for a bug are considered pseudo-votes.

Yes, but you have to consider the time required to file the bug report... it's all good and well to idealistically say you should file everything, but when you really think about it, if you or I flew off to bugreporter.apple.com for every bug I encounter in Apple's software, we'd have little time left to eat or sleep. Seriously - when I actually think about all the bugs in MacOS X that I subconsciously and automatically avoid, it seems like an endless list. If sorted in terms of reproducibility, the original poster's problem seems to be, at least for the moment, lying somewhere towards the bottom. If it were me (and I were bothered with bugreporter), I'd start at the top.


Anyway... it's up to the original poster I guess. I was just trying to highlight the fact that, odds are, any "vague but here for completeness" bug report will be a waste of time. Apple's as well.
