Any feature request that does not wind up in the bugtracker /will/ get 
buried.

And the problem with /discussions/ about feature requests is that they 
tend to have /no/ clear-cut result whatsoever, as they tend do be free 
brainstorming sessions - unless there's someone with the necessary will 
and authority (e.g. because he has started the discussion in the first 
place) "driving" the discussion to a proper conclusion (ideally by 
summarizing the discussion and result in a proper place... like, say, 
the bugtracker ;-))

(Yes, the feature request description is a good place to summarize 
earlier discussions.)
