I don't understand the people from QA to be better, but I think that if a developer needs help to fix a bug and sends an email to debian-devel the chance of answer seems less than if he would write to debian-qa. I think so, because the QA Team tries to improve the quality, which also means bugfixing, and understands better the importance of this problem. On debian-devel is more traffic and so the chancen for an answer are in my opionion less than here. That's why I think it isn't a bad idea, but I'm not sure how good.
