[csw-maintainers] pkgrequests better on Mantis

Very good idea

But i have a question :)

 From what i understand, pkgrequest deals with "please can you add this 
package to the catalog", and mantis keeps track of bugs on packages.

Thus, when you request a package it does not exist in the catalog nor in 
mantis.

So my question is how will you handle that ? does it mean missing 
packages will be automatically added to mantis ? or should we create à 
special package for that ? like a "pkgrequest" entry and open bugs on it ?

cheers
W.
