Description:
Whilst filing 4208, I was required to fill in the "How to repeat" section.  I think that for some bugs (e.g. documentation, website) this requirement doesn't make much sense.  It would be nice for the bug system to not require this for some categories.

How to repeat:
Do not write in this space. <g>

Frederic,

yes, for some bugs it might be the case, but for a majority of those
we still end up in a better position forcing people to try to generate
a repeatable test case by making the "How to repeat" section a
required one.

For the few that simply are, the solution indeed is to just write
something in that box.
