Yes, what was written in IRC is correct. If you could fix something in an Ubuntu package, file two bugs, one upstream with the proposed fix and another bug with “ubuntu-bug package-name” and link the upstream bug to the Ubuntu bug on Launchpad, and ask to either cherry-pick the fix, after it gets committed upstream, or to update the package to a micro- release that contains the fix (a maintenance release with only bug fixes).

I have to manually kill it about once a day, when I start to feel everything slow down as the OS starts to swap. Actually, I tracked down and fixed a few leaks in the code, and it looks stable so far. I'll submit a patch soon, as well as send the fix upstream to Gnome.
