I know the conventional wisdom is to ignore them and all notices but I've found that they sometimes lead to a problem. Would it make sense to start tracking these somewhere - ideally in the forums so people can either comment or find the error when searching and not have to ask

? I'd be happy to seed the list with a few....

for 4.3.x, you should reproduce the notice on demo and if so file an issue with the steps needed to reproduce

if you can include a patch with the issue that would be even better

I can't seem to reproduce but that may be because E_NOTICE PHP errors are not displayed and I can't access php/apache logs.

I do see lot's of forum comments about notices - wonder if a list somewhere might also be helpful for PHP illiterates

In general they are incredibly easy to fix. In one typical example you'd replace this:
if ($foo)
with this:
if (!empty($foo))

Try submitting a patch or pull request to fix one or more. We'll let you know if it's not right.
