I very much agree with the first sentence (I merged the musicxml,
musicxml2ly and XML labels last week); careful about the second one,
since our usual process so far (see CG 8.2.2) was that an issue could
be closed iff:
- it was considered Invalid, Abandoned or Fixed
- that assessment was "verified" by a third party from the bug squad
(and in case of Fixed, reproduced with the latest publicly-available
GUB release).
- in case of a new feature, duly documented in NR and changes.tely
- in case of a syntax modification, with a convert-ly rule or at least
a NOT_SMART
- in case of a regression or an enhancement, a regtest had been added.
Nowadays, part of that process is handled at the MR stage but other
parts have been in limbo because of the recent disruption to our
bi-weekly release cycle. Furthermore, GitLab has features that may
bring us to consider changing some of our policies. That’s sort-of
being discussed right now, so by all means do help us triaging issues
but tread carefully.

I think you absolutely should be added as a project member, and my
vote would be for you to get a Developer status. (I can attest that
although you’re a relative newcomer on -devel, you’ve been a valuable
contributor on -user-fr since 2018.)
