I'll add a special thing for unassigned bugs once the backlog comes down.
For now, feel free to take bugs away from other people if you feel they're
in your area or you know how to fix them (send them e-mail to be polite).
I've been assigning bugs in large batches, and in a number of cases, I did
not pick the optimal person.

Just look at the general summary.  We could use another state, that indicates
that a bug is being actively worked on.  If you see a bug assigned to someone
else and you think you know what's up with it, just go for it.
