I really like Issues as a sanity check: if I'm getting an error or something isn't working, it's nice to know if it's a known issue (or an issue with a workaround). Even if there's no official fix. If you see Issues as a place where anyone can demand new features or bug fixes for free, then I can see it being overwhelming. But I think most people see it as a community-based repository for thoughts, bugs and ideas.

Totally agree. First thing I do when encountering an issue with a repo is check the Issues and see if anyone else is experiencing it as well. Many times the there is already an active discussion going on, and the thread can contain workarounds or an ETA for the fix.
