This is one area where I feel github is really letting us down.
Everything ends up in a giant "bag", where you end up with 1000+ "issues". While you can go into issues then sort by a given label, this has to be done actively, and constantly kept up to date.
I'd prefer something more like an 'inbox', where issues can be filed into different categories which moves the out of the 'new' section. This is what most large projects are doing anyway with labels.
