Comment (by bgamari):

 > Actually, it would be pretty awesome if we could apply a slight graying
 to the fields that we don't expect visitors to fill out. I imagine that
 all tickets all the time would have this graying, but a color change
 would, I think, be less jarring to us regulars than, say, italics would
 be. And the graying has just the right connotation to visitors. (We would
 also add a sentence at the top explaining, for those who look.)

 I think this should be pretty easily done. The next question is what
 fields in particular do we want users to provide? I suggest the following,
  * Priority
  * Version
  * Operating system
  * Architecture
  * Type of failure
