What do the rest of you think?

The suggestion is to add the flag "pending" for stuff that should be
done (and we know how to do; like with a patch or the like), but that
has to wait until after Emacs is opened up for new features the next
cycle.

This is not for "wishlist" stuff, but concrete fixes that should be
applied, but not right now.

The idea is that once the next cycle starts (in this case, Emacs 24),
one could then go through all the "pending" bug reports pretty speedily
and apply the stuff then.
