it would be great if there are now enough QA people to get these
priorities somewhat consistent; right now i am still convinced that they
are all set by the reporters, as high as possible to get attention for
their pet bug, and hence ignorable  :)

(some permissions to allow these only to be set by known QA/dev people
would help, but i guess it's currently not possible on fdo)
