As someone who ends up using other people's code more than fixing other people's code, I try to be sensitive to the issue. For example, I recently started using someone else's code for a project, largely unchanged. However, I have run into issues. I normally just file these issues under my own github fork, rather than the upstream. If I really can't figure something out, I may choose to file an issue with the upstream, but otherwise I'm trying to only send pull requests instead.
