Well, the best I can say is "Nobody actually told me that until just
now".  If that's the case, I'm fine with this.  I'm taking that to
mean that the C-Teams and such are happy with bugs filed in d.o.o and
not bugster being integrated into their various consolidations, etc,
etc, etc. 

My argument was based on the information I had, which was us not yet
being at that point.

Either way, if either you or Jim file an RFE (on grommit, I assume),
we'll get to it as priorities dictate no doubt.
