Triage and You: An experiment in publicly unfunded tracking bugs

Good Morning!

Picking up on the mustfix and shouldfix tracking bugs for cambridge.
I've create a public tracking bug for 'easyfix' bugreports that I hope 
developers will find is a useful tool to get at low priority trivial
bugs they can work on in those oh-so-very-rare moments of free time.

The basic idea here is, instead of developers having to troll through
the bugzilla bugs they own looking for trivial bugs to fix or community
supplied patches that can be tested and applied. They can hopefully use
a query to this easyfix tracker and skip the time consuming step of
finding the easyfix bugs themselves. If you have 10 minutes for working
on low-priority stuff...I want to make it so you spend as little of that
10 minutes as possible searching for easy fixes or submitted patches.

I'd appreciate feedback as to whether or not this is going to be a
helpful tool for you to be more efficient at digging up some those
pesky low-priority bugs.
