Replying to cboos:
Looks like we have a record number of test tickets today…
Argh…
THIS IS NOT A TEST SYSTEM
Maybe t.e.o. needs a special Trac plugin that pops up a confirmation request when the description is less than 2 line long (typical length for 'test' tickets), as it appears that people don't read the static red box…

Well, as soon as we have 0.11 here, we could make the New Ticket link point to NewTicketGuidelines (or a more lightweight version of it), using a TracNavigation redirection. We could then add a few predefined /newticket links there, like:
- if you're using 0.10.4 create a ticket for 0.10.4
- if you're using a development version of 0.11 create a ticket for 0.11
- in other situations, don't forget to set the version information yourself

It's a task for the project. We usually run a pre-version of a release before actually making the release (#4315) and once this will be the case for 0.11, it should be possible to complete this task.

I second the idea about the conformation screen.
There seems to be too many valuable resources devoted to fixing this problem. Someone should make a simple plugin that asks for a conformation, with a disclaimer, prior to submitting a ticket for any thing and anyone that hasn't logged into the site.

Well, maybe one day. Apparently neither cmlenz nor jonas are interested in doing this :-(

That actually happened a few months ago, the "New Ticket" navigation button now leads to the NewTicket page and the number of dumb test tickets dropped a lot :-)
