No, it's not. That's probably a less important issue. The main sticking
point is that several development groups have said they use ASSIGNED to
mean that a bug has been accepted for work by a particular member of the
development group, which differs significantly from the 'official'
definition of ASSIGNED, in the triage workflow. This means those groups
cannot really work with the current triage workflow. That's the main
problem we're trying to address.

This is exactly one of the current proposals, yes. One of the main
questions being whether we do this only going forward, or try to 'fix'
existing bugs to have the Triaged keyword where appropriate.
