You can go about it both ways: file a bug report, put a reasonable date that you want them to fix it by. Then you can disclose it.

This happens quite often. Report a bug to Apple through CERT as an example and they run with a well known 45 day disclosure timeline. For researchers who don't want to get into vendor conflicts this is a good path because CERT ultimately holds the decision.
