+1 on this

Note however that I don't think it should ever be a keyword: keyword are 
meant to characterize (tag) bugs, not for tem status. [havefix] is 
definitely a temporary status and should be in the whiteboard status 
(something erasable).
Note for people using [SWAG] that when you have a [havefix], you can 
typically clean up the whiteboard of the previous [SWAG]
