No. Except that I have added the bugzilla URL as a comment in case I  
already knew this item exists in bugzilla.

Maybe a few weeks or months down the road we should indeed decide  
whether we want to do this step. I wouldn't recommend this for now.

Yes. I'd bear with this for a few weeks until we decide for a final solution.

Regards,

Christian
