If they're not bugs, then they should probably just be closed with an
informative message.

The point is that I'd like to see people already using the features
that are extant to apply usertags to bugs that they think are useful
before I add additional tags.
That other bug systems are using it is fine and great, but considering
the fact that we've not really needed it for quite some time suggests
to me that it might not actually be needed. If you want additional
tags, you need to convince me or someone else with the [EMAIL PROTECTED] hat
on to add them; using usertags to do it, and a list of bugs with the
tags applied would go along way to convicing me that it would be
useful.
