First off, exclamation marks don't help anything. If it's unusable to you, feel free to use something else, we're not exactly ripping you off. ;)

As for the requests to assign this to someone, unfortunately, that's not how these things work. This project is the work of volunteers who are (mostly) unpaid and they work on things that are mainly what they know or what they are interested in. Developers interested in taking on a bug, assign the bugs to oneself. While I know most computer users use Windows, most of our developers do not. Given that, it's even harder to find someone who would be interested in looking into this.

Note: I said mostly as every summer we have students who participate in Google's Summer of Code. However, the students propose what they are interested in working on, and the contract is between Google and the student.
