In GCC, that is what I try to do; though the number of bugs reported
are high and many include missed optimization which are not easy to
fix right away.  What I also have been trying to do is clean up the
much older ones which are more than 3-4 years old now.  This week GCC
is -2 but the week before is +17 and week before that was +3; overall
in the last year GCC is +536 (more than one a day).  For GCC, the C++
front-end is the area which has gotten out of control; not enough
developers :(.  Anyways this is getting offtopic now but it shows how
you can track things a little bit and how things can speed out of
control if an area is not covered by enough developers.

Thanks,
Andrew
