Summary:
If no camera is present, a render starts but does nothing, and we have no "No camera" warning
Detailed description
If we have no camera in a scene, and we press F12, by default we get a fullscreen image editor doing nothing, and we have to press ESC to exit.
It would be better to have a warning "No camera" or so and avoid to go at the Image Editor.
This annoys me because I use a default file with no camera :/

This is not really a bug. In 2.5 "Compositing" and "Sequencer" is enabled per default in the scene "Post Processiong" settings. If you uncheck both, the error "No camera" appears, when you try to render without an active camera.
But yes, this could be communicated better with the user.

Hi,
here if no camera and compositor and sequencer are unchecked it opens an image viewer anyways, but adds a no camera warning. This is bad anyway because still you have to press ESC for no benefit.
Also, I've found another weirdness.
If you have no camera and press ctrl-0 or ctrl-alt-0 and hit F12 it renders the scene...
But with which camera??
No camera should always be warned and inhibit the render in the 3D, just doing it when sequencer and/or compositor have no link with the scene, but just process images and sounds.
All in all, for me opening a view for nothing or rendering with no camera are bugs :)

Got patch for it:
https://projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&aid=23625&group_id=9&atid=127
which changes order of render preparing (opening image editor, etc..) and making checking of render possibility. When Matt'll review it it could be commited/changed to be good and commited.
Assign to self for a while.
