[TCLCORE] Redundancy between Bugs and Feature Requests

[TCLCORE] [Fwd: Re: Redundancy between Bugs and Feature Requests] | [TCLCORE] Testing stacked channels
Hi,

I've just been bitten by a nasty instance of duplicated effort, due to
the existence of separate "Bugs" and "Feature requests" trackers:

FReq: [ 1343161 ] exec implemenation fails to close() open file descriptors
Bugs: [ 1343211 ] exec implemenation fails to close() open file descriptors

There, Donal and I more or less reached the same conclusion, but years
apart... What happened is that the item was re-posted as new instead
of just flipped from FReq to Bug (which is kinda funny since it was
not Tcl's fault in the end ;-).

Another one, of lesser impact since the diagnosis was easy:

FReq: [ 219329 ] fcopy should not lock out I/O in *both* directions
Bugs: [ 1350564 ] Inadequate fcopy operation (just fixed)

I know there's no simple protection against this (apart from merging
all trackers in one, saying Freqs are bugs with prio in a predefiend
range, say 0-5...).
Maybe a Search common to all trackers could alleviate this a bit ?
Is this doable by simple configuration, or is the whole interface
hard-wired into SF ?

-Alex
