some discussions are a real pain...
there is a forum, mailing list, possibility to mail the maintainer, etc.
perhaps (to please everyone) there could be smth like a bug-subforum:
bug #ID -> thread #ID
so discussion can go on. 
but, as someone earlier stated, a bug tracker is for reporting bugs, not
a platform for discussions.
