I believe this can still be handled. Just tag the bug moreinfo, and
continue discussion on the consultants alias. As it is right now,
restricting it to only the consultants alias or some other private
infrastructure means that no one can help with the work or easily see
whether more help is needed. [Lets not make perfect the enemy of good
enough.]

soon, though, the rush from a test tube isn't enough. You want to
experiment more and more. Then before you know it, you're laying in
the corner of a lab somewhere with a Soxhlet apparatus in one hand,
a three neck flask in the other, strung out and begging for grant
money.
