Bug Description

Installed:
ii firefox 1.4.99+1.5rc3.dfsg-1ubuntu4
lightweight web browser based on Mozilla
ii firefox-gnome-support 1.4.99+1.5rc3.dfsg-1ubuntu4
Support for Gnome in Mozilla Firefox
rc mozilla-firefox-locale-en-gb 1.0.4lang20050515-1ubuntu3

attempting to open a new bug in our bugzilla, forgetting to input a "Summary"
give in a XUL error window:

XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
Location: chrome://global/content/commonDialog.xul
Line Number 1, Column 10:SetString(7, editField2.value);
---------^

Instead of actually popping out the error window from bugzilla, as does
epiphany-browser.

I have tested this on my 1.4.99+1.5rc3.dfsg-1ubuntu4 and it seems to work. I
did as follows:
1. Vanilla dapper install last updated some time last week
2. firefox packages 1.4.99+1.5rc3.dfsg-1ubuntu4
3. rm -rf .mozilla; firefox
4. Visit https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com by typing the url
5. Log in using my ubuntu bugzilla account. Answer the dialogue boxes about
saving passwords etc.
6. Tools / JavaScript Console shows errors in
https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/css/plone.css:
  Error: Error in parsing value for property 'font'. Declaration dropped.
  Source File: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/css/plone.css
  Line: 31
 (I have reported this separately, as
http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=20499)
7. Click `new', Ubuntu.
8. Type `firefox' into the Package field
9. Type `No summary, testing.' into the Description field.
10. Click Commit
11. Observe a dialogue box `Please enter a summary sentence for this bug'.
