Yes, sorry, I should have added a ChangeLog entry.

Yes, I disabled the three triplets, because they are meaningless for
most users, and most of the time they should be left blank.
Knowledgeable reporters can always fill the details later.
I also disabled the Initial State because is useless information.
I would also disable the "Assigned To", and "Blocks", but this patch
is a good start.
I think the form should be as simple as possible.
Cheers,
Manuel.
