One thing that I forgot is that if nobody responds to something on the 
bug tracker, then nothing happens.  As I write there are 516 issues with 
only one message.  Obviously some can be discarded as e.g. they are 
place holders for core devs, but it certainly leaves a large number that 
give the OP the impression that they are an irrelevance.
