wish list
n.
A list of desired features or bug fixes that probably won't get done for a
long time, usually because the person responsible for the code is too busy
or can't think of a clean way to do it. ?OK, I'll add automatic filename
completion to the wish list for the new interface.? Compare {tick-list
features}.

[foldoc]:
wish list
want list
<jargon> A list of desired {features} or {bug fixes} that
probably won't get done for a long time, usually because the
person responsible for the code is too busy or can't think of
a clean way to do it. "OK, I'll add automatic filename
completion to the wish list for the new interface."
Compare {tick-list features}.
[Does anybody call this a "want list"?]
When I go to the trouble of writing up a very detailed bug report,
with a complete explanation of the source of the problem, a proposed
solution, a use case which explains why it matters, and most importantly,
a patch which completely resolves the issue, and this is immediately
categorized as "wishlist", with no further comment, then I'm not sure
how to interpret that, except as an insult.
