If the submitter is anonymous, not only can we not follow up with any questions, neither does the submitter get notified of status changes on their tracker.

Would not simply requesting an email address along with the report provide enough information for questioning and notifying the submitter? I don't see why a full-blown registration and login should be required.

If the submitter chooses not to supply an email address, then they have no grounds for being upset at not receiving any notifications!
