Privacy of test documents

What is the best way to remove the content from test documents  
submitted with bug reports to protect privacy please? (They are open  
for anyone to read on bugzilla and appear to remain there indefinitely.)
Would replacing all characters with a string of zeds serve for testing?
Can or could it be reverse engineered?
Or is there a better method?
Cheers in advance.

PS The doc concerned is over 9,000 words. Bug 1 has proved critical  
and stopped all progress. The bugs are:
1.	Outline numbering corrupt in certain places.
2. 'Continue previous numbering' does not function in certain places.
3.	Standard headings (Heading 1 etc.) corrupt numbering.
4.	Vertical ruler stops at the end of page 1 just after 756 points.
5.	Enhancement: rational numbering of vertical points ruler - at  
present it seems to be in multiples of 36 for some reason.

Do a search and replace, search for [a-z0-9], replace with x, use "regular
expression" in "More Options" and hit replace all. Should be enough to
completely garble the document without destroying format.

This is being discussed on the dev list. See
http://markmail.org/thread/ahtyukdr72ejgix6

But in general all submitted documents are expected to be public. 
Options for making them anonymous are given in that thread.

Regards,
   Andrea.
