If someone says 'it should do X', that is not a feature request. That's
telling me that I should make it do X. Someone saying 'Could you please make
it do X', however, is a feature request. See, there's the whole "request"
part of it that's missing from the first statement, and I consider that to be
fairly integral to the whole "feature request" concept.
