Hi Dylan, Ciaran, all |

Apologies for entering this late, but from what I gather from the |
| 4 |
discussion, there seems to be the notion of voting for "real" bugs |
| 5 |
versus "enhancement" bugs, with some believing votes for the second |
| 6 |
would outweigh the first, and skew the perception of what really needs |
| 7 |
to be done. |

So I guess my question follows, is it possible/feasible to only allow |
| 10 |
voting on bugs marked as "enhancements"? (as in the bugzilla keyword). |
