Glen Morris's suggestion above attaches a specific version to the tag (possibly in a non-standard fashion). I think a pending flags is just fine, but it needs to be attached to a version number somehow. Otherwise it is inevitable that a report with the pending tag will remain "pending" at the time of the next release, with no one possibly realizing that it was meant for that release, and not the one succeeding. -- Michael Welsh Duggan (md5i@md5i.com)
