I've had a couple of wishes rejected, with no explanation given. From certain comments, I rather get the sense that I'm not alone in this. It's especially frustrating when a wish garners support from the community, and is then rejected silently.

When a member of the core development team decides that a particular suggestion is so unhelpful as to reject it out of hand, the rest of us would love to know why. Even a single line — e.g. "would require complete overhaul; too costly" or "duplicates other wish: [[[link]]]" — will help us avoid making reject-worthy suggestions in the future. True, we have bad ideas sometimes. But if so, we all want to learn why they're bad, so our ideas can get better.

That way, everyone benefits.
