Indeed. This is not something that ever occurred in the maemo.org
Bugzilla, though. The component owner would mark it WONTFIX if it
equated to "(I)WONTFIX".

A relatively good solution, although assigned to a dummy user is a bit
of a bodge. Isn't there "ACCEPTED"? ACCEPTED, unassigned and low
priority would give a list of things which people could attempt if
they had free time. If there was a "complexity" field (set by the
component owner), low priority, low complexity, ACCPETED issues could
give an easy way in to new developers to many many parts of the
project.
