For VoiceOver bugs with Safari which uses the Webkit browser rendering engine you should instead file them at the public WebKit Bugzilla, https://bugs.webkit.org/page.cgi?id=bug-writing.html. You can search for previously entered bugs and see the status of other accessibility bugs listed so it's better than their internal, private apple bug reporter. You can also share your bug reports publicly to make folks aware of the issue.

Here's a bug I filed as an example, https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id2578
