It's a never ending battle indeed. I was quite busy doing this until my
internship started (it even earned me a position in the annual bugzilla
stats). Having the big rewrite also doesn't help in bugzilla land, as it
means you have a load of bugs 'which will get fixed' and a load of them
'which will no longer be applicable'.

We should figure out what we'll do with these bugs.

And when trunk gets a release, let's fix all bugs shall we? :-)
