It's okay that you have not experienced any error when running sid's
reportbug, but let people who indeed do have had express their
frustation :-)
I can assure you the last thing I like is criticizing a program but when
something crashes many times in front of your face and you have been
recollecting detailed information to write a good bug report... well, is
not a very nice experience.
And I see there is a bug report for having an http alternative:
support for submitting bug reports via http
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=590214
Oh man, that will be great! :-D
