[Github-comments] [geany/geany] "feature-proposal" vs "implementation-proposal" (Discussion #2937)

[Vic]

When people propose a feature / make a feature request, it can one of 2 cases:
1. They want it but don't plan to implement it themselves. Either b/c of no skills or no time. They just suggest it to the developers.
2. They want it and are ready/plan to implement it themselves. 

It may be useful to require people to clearly state which case it is, what do you think? 
Ideally to select a subcategory of issue to make; or place a label themselves.  Alternatively, maintainters to label it clearly as such. 

I think both developers, and non-developers, may  benefit from being able to search/browse by this criterion.
For instance , so that developers can find out whether somebody else is already working or planinig to work on what they want, before starting to work on a fork and pull request. Or can join/help the ones who are planning to.
