Given a threaded index, you aren't wading through "a few hundred posts".
Agreed, a nice canned database entry might be easier to look at, but
who's going to expend the time to maintain the database? Unless someone
actively takes responsibility for keeping the DB up to date, it'll be
junk. So far I heard Philip say he'd be willing to check over some
fraction of the existing entries, but I don't hear anyone wanting to
take it on as a long-term commitment.

Who said anything about making it harder to report them? The webform
feeding into pgsql-bugs is just fine with me. Seems to me the
discussion here is about how we keep track of the results of pgsql-bugs
activity.
