If you get caught on a verifying bits screen, you'll be directed to a blank submission form regardless of the content of your title. Clicking the back button will usually bring your data back.
I'd tested it 4 times, and it happened each time (once on /v/AskVoat yesterday, once here today, then twice more on /v/test). I just retried it and it didn't happen. I guess the string isn't the issue after all. I'll keep monitoring it and reopen if I can find something more consistent.
Any idea what the protocol is here for rejected bugs? Should I delete or just edit with a message?

Are you seeing this consistently?
Both /user/ Reow and /user/Reow went right through.

Well, /v/bugs isn't a formal bug tracker, so there's no real need to 'close' this per se.
I'd leave it up just in case someone else stumbles across this issue, they might find this rather than starting their own thread.
