Unfortunately, it's not so easy from this end, and if I had to do that, I'd probably just not report them at all. I often am working on a computer without Web access (e-mails get queued up for sending when I'm connected later), and I don't always have all my passwords (such as for sourceforge) with me. And, commenting on those bugs is just as annoying (having to go back to the sf website). At least this way they get recorded *somewhere*.
