The 691 open SpamAssassin bugs are kind of overwhelming to tackle.

I'd like a way to tell bugzilla "I've looked at this bug and decided I'm
not going to do anything with it until further notice, please never show it
to me again."  And then have all searches default to not listing anything
with that flag set.

I'm wondering if you folks have better ideas on how to implement it,
before I ask the bugzilla people for it.

A possibility that occurred to me was including functionality similar to
launchpad.net's "Does this affect you?"  So you can sort bugs by the number
of people who have said a bug affects them.

And I could see doing more than just a yes/no/maybe value, and having a
personal priority for each bug.  But I suspect that's getting out of hand.

Might be important to separate "Are you interested in this being fixed?"
and "Is there any chance you might fix it?"

I think I'd probably just do it as "Do you care about this bug?" with
yes/no/maybe values, defaulting to maybe.


There really are an amazing number of bugs in there that I'm just never
going to care enough about to work on.  And I bet the rest of you feel the
same, which is why there are 691 open.  Might be nice to close more of them
WONTFIX.  Maybe vote on some that nobody is ever likely to care enough to
fix?  Like the (exactly) 100 that are over 6 years old.  Maybe add another
resolution "DONTCARE" in case anybody ever feels chronically motivated
enough to go dig this stuff up after fixing everything else.  (603 bugs
have been closed WONTFIX.)
