I applaud this effort, nice work! However, I disagree with the "this
will never be addressed" idea. Just because a few people decide an
issue is not high priority, that doesn't mean that it is not something
that many users may still want. Leaving feature requests open may
catch a developers interest in the future. Maybe there is a better way
to separate these things to "get them out of the way", but just
closing them I don't think is the right way to go.
