Thanks! I'm hopeful that we can find a solution because this is almost
a show-stopper for me. I've spent several weeks going through Bugzilla
to triage C++20-specific issues and as best I can tell, GitHub would
be unable to accomplish this task *at all* (because many bugs were
reported before we had a tag for users to apply and not all bugs are
things that we had bugzilla tags for anyway -- we need a searchable
bug database). So hopefully it's a matter of rebuilding some text
index or something straightforward like that.

Oh, interesting. Thanks for the explanation
