It is indeed, but the flip side is that it's frustrating for the
always-busy maintainers to have people complaining about inattention to
bugs, when there is nothing those maintainers can do about it.

The only remedy is getting new people working on bugs, and you probably
have more ideas than I how to make this happen. I believe the
gnome-bugsquad mailing list is a good place to offer help.
