That would take pretty significant research; it's not like we have a
database of idea/WIP submissions. It's all e-mail.
Not that it wouldn't be worth doing, but it would be an entire day of
someone's time.
BTW, I do still believe that step 1 is tremendously expanding the "so
you want to submit a patch" documentation, and linking it in many places
so that newbies read it. On my TODO list.
