I just had another crazy idea: what about turning the "local" concept
into a "virtual" repository, accessible via a built-in "local
connector".

So, in repository selection dialog you can have: "Local", "Eclipse.org
bugzilla", etc...

Then, instead of "New Task" and "New Repository Task", could be just
"New Task", followed by the repository selection.

I'm not a expert on connector architecture, but I believe this way,
the "local connector" could benefit from a "normal" connector: just
implement attachment support, queries on local tasks...
