I hope that this question was resolved. As for "Report a bug" link on each page
footer, I am not sure if Publican can do that and I am also not sure if it
would not be disturbing.

I would rather like to let us review the requested change and provided patch.
IMO the provided Trac/Bugzilla links makes the bug filing easier, which was the
point of the ticket - please review.

Let us review the change and continue with other doc improvements, there is a
lot of those on our plate in this area.

Martin
