> The thought of every forum post or question generating a bug in our database just seems wrong to me.
	I don't think anyone is suggesting that, but I must admit I have read every one of the posts in
detail....  I do believe that there is some overlap between the bug system and the forums and while 
they should be separate entities, it should be easy to move/reference items between week them.
There are the forum posts where it becomes clear that they should be a bug:

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7022255

and it would be nice to have an easy way to convert/duplicate it as a bug, or bugs where it could be
argued that the discussion would be better served by moving it to a forum:

http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=4449383
http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=4820062
