I don't have any firm ideas either (let alone experience in that matter),
but for above reason, I'd prefer something like this:
The bug should be submitted to the bts (so it doesn't get forgotten). The
bts then sends a notification mail to freeciv-dev, so we all get to see
(and possibly discuss) the thing. If it's a bug, it should get fixed
(obviously ;-) and be treated accordingly in the bts. If it's not,
someone (who?) should reclassify the thing in the bts, as it might still
need clarification (documentation) or improvement in the future.

This is just my deranged opinion, of course...

Bye,
