Paul, IMO:
- adding some bugs on Launchpad
- adding tests that fail and marking them as KNOWN_ISSUE (a.k.a. EXPECTED_FAILURES)
was far better than adding a comment in your merge proposal.

Keep in mind that I have spent my time in order to give you a hand in pointing out the issues I found.

Adding separate bugs allows us to:
- discussed the raised issues separately
- make commits to fix them separately into the branch

And to prove my point: you already wrote 2 comments *without* even looking over *any* of the issues I have raised.

Anyway, I already committed a fix in the branch for bug lp:920724.
