I know this is very frustrating.
An idea would be to give a global view of the Europe as a default zoom. 
But with such a low zoom, newcomers could not see any bugs and would be 
lost.

That's a very good idea. I'll work on it.

In the ToDo-list.

Good idea !
Done.

Let's see what will be the uses before adding constrains :-)

> The current 'x' icon is very hostile and upfront

So, as a local mapper, it is very grateful to make them disappear (by 
correcting them of course) :-)

> it's a bad idea to use this same hostile icon as favicon

What should I put ?

Thanks for the idea, I made it.
The closed bugs can't be modified and they disappear after a week (to be 
sure that Mapnick is refreshed).
