I never liked the "easy pickings" flag either. Your proposed change would be a good way to identify the technical ability required to make the changes to Django. Should we have a separate drop down with options to identify the non-technical (bikeshedding) difficulty of the ticket? There are certain tickets that are created that are not immediately closed as won't fix that are not a technically challenging problem, but are a huge uphill battle to get merged.
