The process to submit feature requests is to post them in the forum
for discussion.

The discussion of what is bad/stupid/insane does not belong in the bug
tracker, where few can see it. Discussions belong in the forum.

I have seen no evidence that people in such a project look at an issue
tracker to figure out what features to start working on. That is
probably a workflow followed only by people on a payroll or when the
issue tracker is your private TODO list.

My claim is that nobody will consider it. Just like nobody is going
back to reread the first feature request threads in the forum. So it
is a waste of time.

The most interesting ideas we pick up from the forum and that there
seems to be consensus about sometimes end up here:
