For most of the stuff under "Bugs", it makes sense to call it that.  
It's just that
some things -- such as the fact that there's no standard 3/4 flat sign 
-- aren't
LilyPond bugs.  They're problems with the universe in general, and 
LilyPond
suffers from those problems, but they're not anything specific to 
LilyPond.  We
can't fix these "bugs", for example.

I'd like to leave most of the Bugs as they currently are, and just have 
a different
heading for "problems with the universe in general; we can't fix these 
things".  :)
