The state of Zend_Rest

There are two outstanding bugs that render Zend_Rest_Client pretty broken in most situations.

One (ZF-2215) deals with Zend_Rest_Client sending "corrupt" requests (Server don't receive the correct order of arguments), another (ZF-2467) with one being unable to send two Zend_Rest_Client calls after each other.

I was wondering, what is the state of Zend_Rest_Client, since these (seemingly simple) bugs go unnoticed?
