I think of it this way: Dwarf Fortress is a hobby to Toady and he is nice enough to upload it etc. so that everyone else can enjoy it. Therefore Toady's wishes are the only ones that count.

You're missing the point.  OP is making a suggestion in the suggestions forum to try to help Toady and DF.  No ones trying to force Toady to do anything.  People are just offering their insight.

I'm just babbling, but why don't we fix the bugs and Toady adds the features? That might get stuff done more quickly, and it means Toady can be as creative as he likes. There's plenty of bug fixing mods, why don't we make them a bit more official?

Are you talking about open-sourcing the game or something else?  The open-sourcing discussion has been had.  Also, managing the bug tracker is vastly different from actually fixing bugs in the game's code.
