"Bugs" is a catch-all chapter with almost no contents of its own; all
the real contents is in its sections.  Are your comments to that
chapter, or specifically to one of its sections, such as "Checklist"?
It is hard to think about your comments without understanding to which
part(s) of the manual are they alluding.
