Yes, there are bugs, like all software. Your flippant response seems inappropriate.
In the past you've said that you would address these sorts of issues before suggesting wider use. You're now suggesting wider use of the tool but the issues still remain. I think it's reasonable to make people are aware of the problems. I also think it's completely reasonable to request that known issues that result in a mess being made in Bugzilla and the SVN history are addressed as soon as possible.

If you're currently using "svn commit" or "git svn dcommit" to commit your patches, please consider using "bugzilla-tool land-diff" instead.
Why?
1. bugzilla-tool updates (and optionally closes) the bug for you when you're done.
2. bugzilla-tool makes a nice commit entry automatically for you (not quite as cool as commit-log-editor yet, but close).
3. MOST IMPORTANT: bugzilla-tool land-diff will automatically build and run the layout tests before landing!
a. Impossible break at least one platform's bots when using bugzilla-tool!
b. Impossible to inadvertently land when the tree is red!
5. In the interests of keeping life interesting, bugzilla-tool will sometimes commit with the wrong commit message (<http://webkit.org/b/28092>).
