Filing bugs

[Scott Kovatch]

For Deploy we are already internally using the convention of putting '(Mac) ' at the start of the bug title, but only because it makes it easier for them to get routed directly to me. :-\

If we could use that, even just for the short term, it would be helpful for me, too.

This would be similar to how a keyword functions for querying purposes. Can I suggest "macosxport"?
