Are you using the Krush-Days list as well to gather potential showstoppers?  I 
ask because we as developers run the risk of not seeing the wood for the 
trees, or of getting so familiar with the bugs and our own well-worn usage 
paths that we no longer perceive what others would see as a showstopper.  
Thus your assumptions might be fine but their inputs might be incomplete.

If the Krush list doesn't throw up anything new, how about we open another 
wiki page as a 'Showstopper Whiteboard to solicit unstructured complaints 
that we can thresh a bit for things we might have missed?
