I bet Twinkle isn't the only gadget (or bot, for that matter) which already has an issue tracker.
For sure. And the fact that this is already happening shows how complex and important some of these gadgets have become -- much more so, in fact, than even quite a few MediaWiki extensions and core features.
Bugzilla has all the obvious benefits a systematic tracker brings over a talk page, and I agree the two can usefully be complementary. If we create a product for gadgets, and gently encourage people to use BZ components for widely used ones, we can get into the habit of using BZ as appropriate.
