I have just been using assigned - I assign the bug to myself and then go looking for someone to help me. :)
I am not saying that having a 'help needed' state would be a bad thing. I fear that with our current level of organization, bugs flagged with 'help needed' would end up being practically invisible.
We should add a special "help needed" page, where every QA member has (should) to look once a week.
There should all bugs listed with State="help needed" and (a new field has to be created) a field "sort of help".
I´d added at least 4 bugs requiring special Linux experience I don´t have....
