I agree with Antoine's point here. As much as I respect Sean and his
contributions, it is important to consider the implications as it may
appear to others.
If you look at Daniel Diniz, who has enhanced tracker privileges, he
started off by using the normal tracker privilege commenting on
bugs, patches and within *weeks*, he started triaging bugs with
enhanced privs. That kind of seems to me a middle-way, as in you start
off triaging in a normal mode with a backing of mentor, it becomes a
easy way to upgrade very soon.
