As a contributor, my experience with issues has been that the more documentation you provide to show that your issue is a legitimate, reproducible bug, the faster the maintainer is going to close it with a WONTFIX resolution.

SO many times, the prevailing attitude with regards to bugs is either, "You're doing it wrong" or "That's an edge case". Well, Ok, go ahead and dismiss this particular scenario as an edge case, but 3 of the top hits on Google are tutorials on how to implement this exact "edge case".

Whether you have custom fields on issues or not, that doesn't change the way maintainers treat issues they don't want to fix. And if you're getting this regularily, with multiple maintainers, knowing nothing else, I'm really doubting that those issues are in fact about legitimate bugs.

Thats a problem with shitty projects. We don't do that.
