(Sorry, couldn't resist).  But yes, you're absolutely right.  That's  
what we need.

A related problem is that, especially for d.o, you need to search a  
bunch of different issue queues if you really want to avoid a duplicate:

http://drupal.org/node/192714

Not at all.  Well, yes, the (current) maintainers don't have the  
time, but we're obviously not the only people on this list who are  
qualified for the job.  Any interested party is more than welcome to  
pick up the ball and run with either of these issues.  #192714 used  
to be blocked on search-related problems (back when d.o's DB was  
being crippled by core search.module) but we're now running xapian on  
d.o, so perhaps that one can be revived without too much trouble.

I don't include so many issue links in my posts to this list just for  
the archival fun of it.  I genuinely hope that someday, people will  
actually jump into an issue and solve a problem or add a feature if  
their itch is scratchy enough. ;)
