we're always going to have a bug backlog.  if there's something specific you
want to highlight that you think have been missed and should be merged, then
please highlight them specifically.  not sure how you can up with this list.

doesn't look like a regression.  it can wait.

not a bug report exactly, no existing discussion, and looks questionable.

merged now.

already merged 2+ years ago.

no, this shouldn't be merged.  the bug thread clearly says as much.

as Vincent said, if they're resolved/closed, then there's nothing more to do.

also keep in mind that if it's a long standing issue and not a regression in
2.4.7 specifically from 2.4.6, then it's less of a priority than getting the
new 2.4.8 out the door.  especially if there is no patch.
