The problem is that small stuff would need more work to track it, than
to fix it. If I need ten minutes to maintain the status of an item on
a webpage and only five to fix it, its not worth to track the issue in
the first place. Beside that the tracking of items would very quickly
get out of sync with what is going on in CVS unless one takes extrem
causions, so it wouldn't really help all that much. Beside that there
is also the problem with people starting something, but never getting
it into a 'patch submit' ready stage, which would result in items
being marked has 'handled' or whatever, but in the end not getting
done at all.

IRC is really the best to way coordinate small items.
