Ping?
Other bugzillas I've used have a big red text box that very
prominently tells the submitted to search for existing bugs. We should
use something like that to point to the guidelines and the "not a bug"
docs. The current notice is almost invisible, so it's hardly a
surprise noone bothers to read the guidelines.
I'd do it myself but I don't know where the relevant pages are. Are
the bugzilla templates in CVS, or only on the server?
