Yep. When overwhelmed, it's particularly welcome to be making quantifiable progress on something. Anything. And in many cases it really is worth interspersing the easy tasks with the hard ones just to keep morale up, even if those easy tasks are really not terribly important from a priorities perspective. Of course, the flip-side of that is feature creep, when too much time is spent on the low-priority easy stuff. I think every programmer needs to learn this balance at some point, as an aid to avoiding burnout.
Yep we need to finish and polish what we have before adding anything new. There are so many long term important bugs still not fixed. https://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=314
