12 From user point of view while I report new bug I can set piority and severity
13 to what I want, everybody could. Then bug-wranglers have to point that bug to
14 suitable herd/dev so he is informed about a bug. But such bugs as I was said
15 before are hundreds. Bugs in Gentoo Security as Mike proposed are lot less,
16 so devs could concentrate on them and next go to common bugs category.

18 I don't know if it is possible to make it so, but I hope I helped a little.
