Well, I understand why using the bugtracker is preferable. If everyone 
had their own different way of supplying with new patch, feature 
requests and so on, the developer could soon lose the overview. Keeping 
things like this in a system is a must.
I haven't used the bugtracker much, but is it that hard following these 
guidelines?

And then putting it on the bugtracker? Isn't that the common guideline?
