As someone else pointed out, we do have Windows and Mac components.
Historically the number of bugs specific to other OSes has been small
enough that it hasn't been worth having classifiers for them.  Or perhaps
it's that we haven't had devs who were specifically tracking those
platforms...

We can add additional components if the community sees a need for them.
