The bug link you posted is where to look...

Most often bugs that affect lots of applications or that break
something that a developer use gets fixed first...

bugzilla is more a place to keep track of bugs, opening one doesn't
mean that it will be fixed soon.

Webcam support is something that look like it might be quite
complicated (DirectShow and VFW would be needed for a proper
implementation and accessing the webcam requires several different
methods (although an API implementing several APIs can probably work
around that, but might bring in license requirements and additional
dependencies) Linux needs V4L and V4L2, OS X likely needs CoreVideo,
(Solaris and BSD probably have their own way of supporting video
capture) etc...)
