Right so Issue 1459 is fixed?

You don't really make it easy for the bug squad - who are generally
non-technical people who have enough to do without having to pick
apart/read through long threads, threads I might add that have never
been reported to the bug list (or dev list - that was me).

Federico, it seems you have the ability (and knowledge) to create a
tracker yourself so I suggest that if issue 1459 is fixed you change
the label to fixed - someone else will verify -  and then create a new
tracker for the enhancement - whatever it is. Else whoever comes back
to the old tracker has to puzzle their way through and often this puts
people off (unless you yourself are going to work and create the
patch).

Add this to the same (new?) Tracker as well.

We're desperately trying to make it as easy as possible for the bug
squad (and developers) to workout what a tracker is for and if/when it
is fixed and more importantly how to know what they are looking at.

I hope you understand.
