If tasks were properly triaged and tagged, it would be easy to create various quite accurate statistics.
If you think that tasks aren't "properly triaged" currently, could you elaborate what specifically you'd like to see changed?
But attempts to create tags which would allow it were and are unfortunatelly being questioned, delayed, stalled or even declined.
Do you have specific examples? I do ask for usecases on proposed tags when I don't see how they'd support those folks managing and fixing tasks, as I'd like to avoid categorizing for the sake of categorizing (+people need to do the categorizing, which triggers notifications).
In one of my previous jobs, where I was taking care of the bugtracker as a part of my duty, after I made an order in it, the number of opened tasks decreased to nearly 70% of the original count.
Was that a public bugtracker where anyone could file tasks and anyone could work on tasks (FOSS project?), or an internal instance?

Then after some statistics I' ve ran from the new data, our teams became more effective and productive due to having better data to work with and at the end of the consolidation process, we ended up in oscilating between 30-50% of the original amount of opened tasks.
I wish it was possible to achieve the same here...
