All of those should be track tickets. And we could choose a new
keyword (like the one we already have for "beginner" patches) for
those tickets that require advanced computer science skills but not so
much mathematics. Then of course a search for those tickets could be
advertised on the welcome web page linked from StackOverflow.
Any suggestion for a good keyword?

With the upcoming libgap, that sounds a priori reasonable; but I'd
love to have feedback from an expert on that point!
