I think this might actually improve the situation.

today I have the impression there are many times questions asked
via IRC when no one is really online and no one can answer them, but
even if you say: post this to the ML or to BZ, those questions/bugs to
tend to not show there up.

I just fear that half an hour might be a really short time if you have
a hard problem, but otoh you at least get the initial discussion kicked
of and can follow up on that via mail or bugzilla or further irc sessions.
