Another issue onto the list of thousands, to collect dust for
the next few years til someone decides they want to use their
personal time to fix it. Just to highlight another problem,
there's a lot of trivial to fix issues. Just maintenance
really, like that one you posted. But there is no one going
through fixing them. Well that one might end up getting fixed
cause of the extra exposure.
Maybe you could fix one or two? As you say they're trivial and
apparently no one else is doing it.

And have the patch wait in the PR queue until the end of time,
not even acknowledged at all ?
The lack of focus goes hand in hand with the lack of manpower
with some not-so-great results like we're seeing right now, at
least IMO.
The perceived lack of focus is another matter, which I agree is
disconcerting. I say perceived because I'm sure there is focus
and a plan but it isn't visible from the outside. The core dev
team seem to jump from one thing to the next with nothing going
pushed thought the last 10% to completion so it all feels 90%
complete.
