I like the idea of managing my list with issue tags. We'd just need to be able to see them in the table at http://drupal.org/project/user, and filter by them. Is there an open issue for this? -tao Derek Wright wrote:

I would like for each project to be able to add or remove statuses to their liking but I don't have time to work a patch and it isn't as important as other items on the list.
That'd be a pain for various reasons. For one thing, it'd be impossible to filter by status across projects if the set of possible values was different on each project. Basically, status would become just like component in the current issue queues, and I think that's a step in the wrong direction.

There's already an issue open on d.o about re-organising the issue status settings - http://drupal.org/node/171350
I hoped to have time on the flight home to look at this closely, but was dealing with other things. My initial impression of that proposal (and what Earnie is saying above) is that we need *less* distinct status values, not more. For all the subtle, fine-grained stuff people keep wanting, that we should use issue tagging (or a separate "Status reason" vocabulary) instead. But, I'll reply with a more coherent counter-proposal at #171350 when I can.
