(which I have a bit more of a problem with, actually; if a bug tracker isn't open to everyone, it's value decreases remarkably, including to the paying customers who are using it).

It helps RedHat focus on the bugs their customers care about -vs- bugs non-customers care about.

True, but you also don't get outside feedback/comments/help. You only get the paying customer(s) with the issue and RedHat developers.
