The mistake you made was to rashly assume that everyone knows how to report Sigil bugs on MobileRead forum or Git. Really? How is it possible for any newbie(who is not a developer) using Sigil to report a bug when there is no clear and obvious path within the Sigil app for doing so?
Another tentative Sigil change request for KevinH. Could a direct link be put into Sigil's Help menu -- perhaps called 'Report Bugs' -- so that people can easily report Sigil bugs and problems? Hopefully this will satisfy Toxaris's unreasonable impatience concerning people's lateness in reporting bugs.

Who is making assumptions here? Years ago the application was hosted on Google Code and it was very easy creating issues there. You needed to go there to get the latest version anyway. Also on Git, where currently the code and the latest versions are hosted, it is very easy to report a bug.
I am not impatient (nor unreasonable). I frankly don't care when you report your bugs. What I do care about is claiming a bug is 'infamous' when you are the only one that knew about it. A strong and harsh word that is not correct. If a bug is really bugging you that much, you would have found out how to report it. That is all I am saying.
