Here is a search that should interest you:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/+bugs?field.searchtext=&field.status%3Alist=NEW&field.status%3Alist=CONFIRMED&assignee_option=none&field.assignee=&field.bug_reporter=&field.bug_commenter=&field.subscriber=&field.tag=&field.tags_combinator=ANY&field.status_upstream-empty-marker=1&field.has_cve.used=&field.omit_dupes.used=&field.omit_dupes=on&field.affects_me.used=&field.has_patch.used=&field.has_branches.used=&field.has_no_branches.used=&field.has_no_branches=on&field.has_blueprints.used=&field.has_no_blueprints.used=&field.has_no_blueprints=on&search=Search&orderby=-date_last_updated&start=0

This is: NEW and CONFIRMED bugs, unassigned, without linked branches
or blueprints. That should be quite a good list of triagable bugs. If
somebody already triaged it, then it's state should be either Triaged
or Incomplete. If somebody is assigned, or if there's a linked branch,
then somebody is probably working on them. This search should find
most of what's left over.
