    Why do you forward bug reports from emacs-devel to emacs-devel, with
    only the little "please DTRT and ACK" addition?

Because my experience is that this gets someone to debug and fix it.
If I don't do this, quite often nobody works on the bug.

It also gives me a reminder if nobody works on it.

     It has the effect of
    removing the OP from the CC list when people reply to your forward, as
    well as creating a separate thread.

Perhaps I should reply instead.
