Usually, in general case, an user that reports a bug has not enough
skills and knowledge in the area for be sure that a bug, which he
going to report, and a bug, which found by pre-submit query, are
duplicates indeed. Therefore, request he to make such decition is
just unfair (and ineffective).
If finding of potencial duplicates may be automated indeed, then I
would to create crontab job (for example) with this automated
searching and then publish the report somewhere (through www or
e-mail, for example) for following review by people with appropriate
knowledge.
