I've never been a fan of this split to begin with. Having a much less
visible means of suggesting enhancement requests or bugs pretty much
just sucks. Just speaking for myself, I'm very unlikely to report any
enhancement requests about bugzilla on redmine...

So we're only tracking enhancement requests if the reporter can either
(1) do it themselves; or (2) they can show that it's reasonably
resourced? I can't imagine a similar strategy working for LibreOffice
itself - we might as well close 99% of enhancement requests. I don't get
why we'd have two different "philosophies" just because one is "infra"
and the other is .... something else?
