That's hilarious!

Keeping track of reportbug is never easy.  There's always something new
and sometimes its author forgets about the existence of front-ends such
as debian-bug.  I was under the impression that it was not supposed to be
interactive when using the --template switch.  I'll test this out and
will speak with the reportbug author.

Thanks!
