We should make > `report-emacs-bug' better known as a recommended > way to submit ANY feedback about Emacs. ... > It might also make sense, for discoverability etc., > to add a `send-feedback' alias for `send-bug-report'. I'll mention also that I often suggest to users (e.g. on SE.emacs or Reddit) that they use `M-x report-emacs-bug' to send an enhancement request. And pretty much each time I feel obliged to add something like "(that's for enhancement reports, as well as bug reports)" so they aren't scared away by the command name, thinking that it's something too serious or that they might get criticized for not submitting a report of a proper bug. An alias that emphasizes general feedback to improve Emacs would be good, I think.
