Yes please - small things like the branches drop down are not very intuitive.

I think the competitive advantage for Bitbucket will come from super-enhancing features like the issue tracker. Today, I still have to run Redmine inspite of having Github issues. Give me an industrial quality issue tracker (hooks, assignee features, charting, roles and permissions).

Basically just pull Bugzilla into Bitbucket. Now, that would be a killer feature !

Please, NO. I would cringe at a full version of Jira being included, too. If I want one of those, I will install one of them. I do think BB's issues are under-powered (and it is a major problem), but I'd much rather have a clean, clear, well-designed 20% of Jira.

In BB's defense, GH's issue system is horribly underpowered too.

Really? Bugzilla? Talking about bad user interfaces. Anyway I don't see the BitBucket guys integrating Bugzilla anytime soon since they're part of Atlassian now which markets the Jira issue tracker.

Nope - I'm not really talking about Bugzilla or Jira from a UI point of view, but more of a functionality angle. That's the thing - the UI for issue tracking, on both Github and Bitbucket, is great. No functionality however.

TL;DR : will pay for issues
