Definitely. I find it very annoying searching through bugzilla looking for 
things that other Arch Testers haven't tested. On the other hand, after a 
while you start to remember which bugs haven't been tested(at least if you 
are on an arch with >150 bugs). Barring that case, such a system would be 
very nice.
