[Python-Dev] Enhanced tracker privileges for dangerjim to do triage.

I'd say there is something wrong with the process. If a trusted
developer can't get somebody more privilege on the tracker by saying
that "I trust this guy", then a new process is needed. That's it's too
hard to get privileges in the Python development community has been
evident too long, I think.

There is one privilege that should be hard to get: Permanent delete.
But being able to triage bugs isn't such a privilege. Heck, not even
commit access is, because of someone makes something bad, you can back
out the checkin. Giving people rights to a bugtracker or versioning
system is not dangerous, and should not be hard.
