IIRC We agreed to drop this when discussing it during the migration. It doesn't fit with the new theme and we where getting enough incorrectly lodged bugs for other products is was annoying.

If you're referring to the "Report Bugzilla Bug" link, I think it should be dropped for Bugzilla 5.

The link seems to confuse/encourage a few users to file bugs under the Bugzilla product instead of choosing the correct product.

The link also makes a lot more sense for upstream/BMO where a significant percentage of bugs filed are about Bugzilla itself.  For Red Hat Bugzilla it's less important because only about 0.5% of the total (non-embargoed) bugs are about Bugzilla.  That means the link is just wasting screen real-estate the vast majority of the time.

(If we were going to have a shortcut to file a bug, it would be more useful to have one for Fedora, which has 37.7% of the total non-embargoed bugs.)

After think more, I agree with this
