Another thing that could help (again drawing from the USSD stuff) is a clear and prominent description of the various states (many people seemed confused by the term 'FIXED') - and to go with that many some sort of profile option to turn off such description displays from those who value our scree real-estate

Hey ho! There are links next to most of the bug fields that take you to descriptions, but they're not particularly obvious, and the descriptions aren't always super friendly (particularly in the looks department, some diagrams wouldn't be remise).

Is the new version of bugzilla skinnable? If so, maybe have two skins available, a 'newbie' skin with that sort of information, nice big vote button and big link to a discussion thread. I would also consider taking out the various contact and assigned addresses from this skin. Then also have an 'old-hand' skin which is pretty much the normal bugzilla interface and have this user-selectable. The 'point-n-moan' class of user that is arguably causing the current bugzilla overload are unlikely to bother changing skin (or even find the setting).
