I'm afraid that you're misspeaking.  RT not only provides plenty of
structure, it allows you to modify the structure via the web interface,
rather than needing to dig into the guts of bugzilla to try and make
what you'd hope were simple changes.

As other people have said - bugzilla is fine for bug tracking.  It's
not at all good at trouble ticketing.

cheers!
