Me neither.  In fact, I think there's a lot of value in a central
database of "all known bugs"; it helps users figure out whether
something they're running into is something they've run into before.

However, I am sympathetic to the idea that we need ways to see what's
important to work on now.  The problem there is that importance is in
the eye of the beholder.  The PN system expressions something about
regressions that's moderately useful, but nothing else.  I suspect that
we need more database fields, so that people could run more interesting
searches.
