I've filed a ticket on the bbPress trac: http://trac.bbpress.org/ 
ticket/867  Any bbPress specific issues can be filed there by anyone  
with a WordPress.org username/password.

I'll look into the following issues raised here over the past couple

Profile Edit Page
Spam colors
Visited links

Partially Fixed already:
User activity sort: http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/865  The sort  
order it's doing now is wrong.  That's been fixed in core bbPress and  
will be live on WordPress.org soon.  Sorting by latest reply from  
anyone or the option to is a good one: http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/
