I'd suggest we *do* create a tracker item, even if Reinhold pushes 
immediately, so that we can work toward one source "of record" for all 
changes and enhancements.  As it is, there are a an unknown number of 
things added or done to lilypond, leaving no trace except in git blame 
or its relatives.  Using the tracker, while it may seem overkill to the 
senior devs, at least gives us a searchable database which can be tied, 
if only manually, to Reitveld.  If the outstanding request on Reitveld, 
to allow searching by project, were to be implemented, life could be 
different.  If we had our own instance of Reitveld, we could de jure 
limit it to lilypond. If wishes were fishes . . .  Long one short, by 
linking every Reitveld patch to a tracker item, we have an easily 
searchable list of all our activities, with somewhat less likelihood of 
duplicated effort and much better review of agbe and status.
