So to ease this work, I created two stored queries:

 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=runnamed&namedcmd=mab-not-highest
 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=runnamed&namedcmd=highest-not-mab

QA volunteers concerned with bug priorization are encouraged to check these and
either move them in a consistent highest and MAB or a consistent not-highest
and not-MAB state. Note that usual workflow is still in place, so if you mark
something as a MAB you should provide a good rationale.

Best,

Bjoern
