Stuff that could make work on Emacs itself more smooth.

* Changelog
** action-stamps
I don't know any function to

1. generate them from a Git commit, a *vc-change-log* buffer…
2. convert them back to a Git commit, a *vc-diff* buffer…

They can almost be generated with:

#+BEGIN_SRC sh
git show --no-patch              \
         --date=format:"%FT%T%z" \
         --format=format:"%ad!%ae"
#+END_SRC

Except that [[https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339][RFC3339]] says:

#+BEGIN_QUOTE
   time-numoffset  = ("+" / "-") time-hour ":" time-minute
#+END_QUOTE

While ~%z~ yields "+hhmm" or "-hhmm".  Also [[http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=3872][ESR wants Zulu time]].

See bug#20609.

* Bug tracker
** Asynchronous client
It would be wonderful if ~debbugs-gnu~ and ~debbugs-gnu-search~ used
their own thread/process to wait & process the server's response,
instead of forcing me to twiddle my thumbs for minutes.
