Open issues policy

[benjeffery]

As you may have noticed I'm doing some issue "gardening" and have been closing some issues which are great ideas, but do not have anyone working on them, or anyone who plans to work on them in the near future. I think this issue tracker works best when it is a list of the following:

1. Features that are planned for roughly next release or release+1 that have someone who is doing or plans to do the work
2. Known bugs/undesirable behaviour
3. Issues where active discussion (a comment in the last 1-2 months) is taking place to decide if the issue fits into 1 or 2

This means that someone who has an idea can still open an issue and have it discussed (and if they can't implement, generate enough excitement to maybe recruit someone who can)

Issues that don't meet these criteria are closed, and those that are still good ideas are labelled with "future" so we can search them and they are not lost in the massive pile of closed issues.

Does this makes sense to everyone? Drop a 👍 if so.
