I saw that "How to contribute..." but I thought/think
its destination is to the doc section about contributing.

If so, that's not quite the same thing.

It would be OK to have a single link that points to
something that covered both (1) `report-emacs-bug',
mentioning that that's also for enhancement requests,
and (2) how to contribute in a deeper way: GIT, patches
etc.

[Mentioning also enhancement requests was my input
for this bug thread.]

But in that case, the more lightweight feedback, #1,
should be separated and up front, so users wanting
to report a bug or suggest an enhancement need not
find themselves immediately in the depths of how to
contribute in a deeper way.

We want (IMO) to encourage lots of users to provide
relatively easy feedback, beyond also wanting some
users to get more deeply involved.  We don't want
people to get the impression that lightweight
suggestions are not possible or encouraged, and that
a heavy commitment is the only encouraged participation.

Just one opinion.
