Sadly, no, it's not a great chance. The problem is not all that simple,
and sadly explaining in sufficient detail what the issue is (so that it
can be fixed by a newcomer) is more time and effort than fixing the bug
itself.
But I do know about the tag, and will use it for other issues, when it
is fitting.
