One possible issue with that:  Somebody already complained in some bug that 
I always report my bugs as NEW, not UNCONFIRMED.  But that's not me but the 
wizard who either likes and trusts me too much or has a bug somewhere.  I 
guess that has to be fixed first or the script in question won't make much 
sense.

Cheers,
