The main problem with this is that there has to be a list of certified bugs.
A lot of entries in the bug tracking system do not apply to the current 
versions, are unreproducible or to vague.

Sometimes the reporters do not respond when asked for more details or are not 
capable of providing them (for example in case of Konqueror because the site 
is some intranet site or needs a user account, etc)

Developers usually don't ignore bug reports, but they might have different 
priorities for each of them.

Maybe if a couple more volunteers would help to elimited the duplicates 
first? :)
