*sigh*, I don't care that much, I just disagree personally. Use the PHP 
language plugin for example, it reports quite a lot of *useful* errors there 
that it detects during its semantic analysis. Things like using deprecated 
functions comes to mind.

How is that different than a TODO? Maybe in "severity" but that would just make 
my point even more valid: Make the existing widget actually usable (filters, 
sorting, full project overview, ...).

Anyhow, who codes decides. This time it won't be me.
