Currently it is easy for the project to miss a ticket, and for that ticket to fall through the cracks indefinitely.
At the same time, user reports cannot be expected to fill out all of the required fields accurately.
It's proposed that we introduce a new initial state named 'Triage' that has no required fields, and that anybody may file.
To transition to the Open state, you must be a committer in JIRA (or, perhaps, we can introduce a new role for those
on the way to committership), and must ensure the required fields have been correctly filled out before doing so.
