The catch is what "everybody" above means. E.g. for bug 830, I am not a
member of the set "everybody". The only choice I have is to leave the bug
as unconfirmed. I guess this is not intentional, but it might explain why
there are so many unconfirmed bugs.

BTW, did you (Lars) see my and Johns comments to bug 1244?
