If anybody's interested in seeing some public information about known bugs, there's public user-driven "mirror" called Open Radar ( http://openradar.appspot.com ) that's really helpful. If you file a bug with Apple you can copy/paste the description (as well as any responses from Apple) there to help others
Unfortunately many bugs are not copied over there. I myself am guilty of not going through the hassle of mirroring every bug report I submit.
In the end, I believe it is more worthwhile to just file bugs [1] en-masse to have a "this issue is public" checkbox in their bug reporting interface. If enough people request this feature hopefully they will add it.
