I like the tag idea.

The biggest issue that I see with this is, again, trying to make sure
people know that they *should* put bug patches into the CF and make it
clear *which* CF to put them into.

I don't know that we've even got an answer for the second question
currently, do we?  My thought is "whatever one people are looking at
now" but I'm guessing others feel differently.

A tag for this would be great..
