GitHub gave us an eternal backlog by default. Anything we didn't want to ship got closed with some special label affixed to it.
There's no reason it should ever shrink in this kind of setup. The careful open/close visibility separation throughout seems to keep things at ease. We are almost at 20k closed issues, so I feel like any cracks would have formed by now.
The process for searching the "backlog" is about as simple as you might think. All you have to do is constrain for 2 things. Moving something from backlog to triage is literally 1 click.
Depending on how organized your software factory is, this stuff can become pretty magical.
