Robert, I think the idea of making driving-to-zero a common default would be awesome.
The common theme in Kate's bug reports is that the rate of incoming bug reports to Ubuntu is so high it is not possible to stay on top of them, and important things are getting lost in the noise. Anything that can be done to help filter signal from noise is going to help address the core needs and decrease the chance things will drop on the floor. (I am particularly favoring bug #777861; in my own experiments separating bugs by series and then focusing on just one series at a time has been extremely effective). I like the idea of having new targets inherit importance and maybe status, but thinking about how it'd need implemented in launchpad, I am little concerned it could require a lot of misc. UI to handle various corner cases (like what if the filer has permission to set to New but not to say Triaged, or what if the original target is marked Invalid or In Progress, we wouldn't want to inherit those...) If there's higher leverage ways of solving the lost-in-the-noise problem, those may well be better to focus on first. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777853 Title: Bugs assigned to new targets are easily missed (their default values sort at the end of bug lists) -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
