It causes people to waste time developing features we don't want.

We don't want them at all, or we just don't want a naive implementation of them?

If we don't want them at all, then surely we should remove those items.  Or move them to the bottom of the page, where there is a section just for such things.  That way people can at least see that it has been considered and rejected.  And for things that we do want, it is nice to have links to the emails of where it was discussed/attempted before.  This is especially useful because searching the archives is very inefficient due to nearly every word you want to search on being a stop word or a very common word with many meanings.  It is much easier to find it on the todo list if it is there than to search the archives.
 

It also has a note at the top saying we think it's complete, but we
don't think that, or I don't think it anyway.

Yeah, I don't care for that, either.

Cheers,

Jeff
