I'm pretty sure there isn't any feasible way to create/have an open
"playground" in CVS.  Really, for those w/o commit access, the forums for
ideas and development are the wiki, the mailing lists, and bugzilla.

as far as openness, ease of use and organization, i think the wiki is your
best bet for a "playground."  it's also a really good place to capture and
organize valuable discussions on the mailing lists.  once a patch for a bug or
enhancement is developed and production-ready, it should probably still be
submitted to bugzilla for the sake of permanence and visibility.

yes, i think it is a reasonable patch.  i'll get it in ASAP.

P.S.  plain text emails are much preferred on these lists. :-)
