in kate it also works very much like this, so while "most projects" is a 
bit of a stretch, there are certainly relevant projects where this is 
the case, so Francis' point is well worth discussing.

In fact I share Francis' concern, and I think re-using the 
severity/priority fields to make this decision will add more confusion 
than it provides value. Also consider that a lot of people will set 
these fields in the tracker which are not aware of this policy. I'd 
instead leave the decision to the project maintainers and they can voice 
it by writing an email to some list.

It would be nice if you could address the point if you disagree, instead 
of brushing it off without explanation.

Greetings,
Sven
