can i recomment for the next stabilization period we work out some way of
making lots of noise about:

1. coverity scan issues to be fixed
2. clang analysis issues to fix
3. MOST IMPORTANT - ... bugs that have already been filed in phab. it'd be
really good to have some kind of report and make a tonne of noise about bugs we
have open. during stability no wishlist bugs - the actual bug bugs... :)
