I'm getting lost as to what the point here. We can still advise users
about their packages on the AUR. They just can not advise us on our
[community] packages without making a bug report. I like that because
whenever a user makes a comment on the AUR page that I have to deal
with, it requires me to bookmark the page or else it will be forgotten.
The bug tracker has a nice feature where I can list all bugs assigned to
me, so feature requests/bug reports files there never get lost.
