[FusionComm] Bugzilla

On the opencompsiting forums I've now had to explain at least three times (in 
the past week) that the bugzilla for compiz core is different from the 
bugzilla for fusion.  I made the mistake myself originally, and actually had 
a bug report in the opencompositing bugzilla removed because it was a problem 
with core, so I then had to re-enter it into the freedesktop bugzilla.

Is it really necessary to have two different spots for bugs?  How is an 
user/tester supposed to necessarily know that a bug is in core or in fusion?    
I would know because I built it from source, but most people don't.  

And, if it is deemed necessary to have to different spots for bugs, can it at 
least be made possible for an admin to easily move bugs from one tracker to 
another?

I'm not trying to stir up another fusion vs. compiz debate.  Or oc forum vs 
compiz-fusion forum vs compiz forum debate.  Or mailing list debate.  I'd 
just like to point out how incredibly inconvenient this is for tester and 
users.
