Would it make sense to create a central port problem reporting mechanism.
The idea would be to collate problem reports via a centralized collector,
aggregating potential issues into a more central/visible element.
For example, a port is broken and doesn't build correctly, "port report
<portname>" would send the build logs and other data to a central
collector. If it's a known issue, maybe the collector might even have an
automated response containing that info which could be a comment from or
pointer to a ticket.
This may grant a higher view into potential issues for port maintainers,
reducing noise in mailing lists, tickets, etc.
