One thing that occurs to me is that you're looking at the benefit of not having to close pointless bug reports.
Wouldn't it make more sense, though, to still have a web form that posts to the list (requiring the fields you want required and prompting the user to only submit if they're sure it's acceptable according the rules which you display yet again) in the desired format. You can still have the policy of ignore reports that aren't useful without having to close bug reports without shutting out less savvy users, who presuming they are actually filling out the report as requested have either a) provided the necessary information or b) can be contacted to get more information. Even with the proposed post-to-the-list in the correct format you're not going to avoid the knobs that think the policies don't apply to them, and are still going to have to ignore that sort of thing. If the concern is things ending up in a tracker (e.g. the list is going to end up in a tracker that requires closing, then I'm unclear what you've gained), unless there is some sort of moderation of what goes in the tracker.
