Additionally, an HTTP interface to reportbug would be a good idea.
are you (and all the others asking for this) willing to help developing one?

As a "PHP developper", I can help if needed, yes.

Many new users find it difficult or unnecessary to set up an MTA when
they first install,
Could you please point to any reference where it's written that the
only way for reportbug to work it's thru a local MTA and not also with
a remote SMTP server?

You can use remote SMTP server too, but it's not really easy too : you have to setup service host and login each time you install reportbug on a server, and remember the password (password often choosen by your FAI) each time you will use reportbug.
