Well, the idea is not to *require* a form to be filled out, or even that the 
whole form be filled out.  If you supply sufficient information, there is no 
need for a form.  For those who don't supply anything useful (and there seem 
to be a lot -- maybe 20-30% of the requests) one suggestion is to send them a 
form and request them to fill it out.  It seems to me that is much easier for 
users to accept than being sent to the Support page.  Whether or not it would 
really work is another question ...
