--- Comment #1 from MZMcBride <b...@mzmcbride.com> ---
Restoring the "easy" keyword following discussion with Krinkle. Bugs marked
with "easy" do not need to be explicitly spelled out about how to move forward
(e.g., "go to path/to/file.php and change this line"). They just need to be
straightforward in the goal.

We can add a separate "thoughtless" or "trivial" category if people would like.
I think Nemo is beginning to question the value of the keyword altogether. He
may be right, though I like the idea of having an index of easy bugs for people
to get involved with. Maybe this would be better served by [[mw:annoying little
bugs]].

"Easy" in keywords currently means "this would be a good bug for a new
developer to take a stab at." In this case, a new developer might come along,
do some thoughtful consideration (as is sometimes required with bugs), and say
"what about X or Y?" in a Bugzilla comment or perhaps in a Gerrit changeset.
Then we can move forward.
