--- Comment #6 from Claudius Ellsel <[email protected]> ---
Unfortunately currently there are two overlapping systems to track things.
Hopefully that will improve with the move to GitLab issues. From my
understanding, Phabricator tasks were mostly used for actually worked on
things, while feature requests (also large ones) are preferred to be tracked on
Bugzilla. In my opinion, the separation between those things is pretty hard and
I also don't think that it makes much sense to have this distinction.

Personally I don't see big problems with huge meta bugs that probably will be
open for a long time. This of course might need proper labeling and filtering
when going through bug lists. And the fact that the bug is open indicates that
it does indeed still have work to do (and probably still open actionably
dependency bugs that are actionable). I guess it is more some kind of
psychological thing whether you want to have many open bugs that might be hard
to fix (like Ubuntu had with the "Make Linux the no. 1 operating system", which
got closed by the way due to the success of Android).

I remember that in the past a Phabricator Task from me got closed because it
was not thought for "users"? That is the reason why I report everything that I
don't plan to work on but still consider a good improvement to Bugzilla.
