I think rails users, who are able to find a bug in rails are also able to write a test for it. A GUI system, which allows you to make the system do the stuff which causes the bug and records the steps would be great, but i fear most software is to complex and special to come up with a useful system.

For Rails, sure - but most FLOSS projects are not like that.

Tests generated by GUI systems are extremely fragile and you wouldn't them hanging around your codebase. OTOH, often a video recording is a great way to demonstrate a bug without having to (be able to) write an automated test, and pretty easy for even a non-technical user to produce.
