I agree Richard - To me it really should block 0.12 as its one of
those issues that can escalate out of proportion i.e. the product
doesn't handle resource costs as expected by the typical user
will turn into bad PR.

We've got to get the behaviour of this one cost figure right
else we're doomed to not be to enhance this e.g. ...

- multi-currency support 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138935 ),
- per-use costs (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138936 ),
- overtime/standard rates (no bugzilla added AFAIK),
- per-diem costs (i.e. what 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=140252 is trying to say),
- a "Resource cost" view (like the Resource Usage view only its
   a table of costs so you can forcast project costs correctly - no 
bugzilla from me yet).
