The reason I added this bug is that the maintenance tab is quite obviously 
broken. Yes, it is a little thing, but we have such broken UI everywhere. 
Shipping a KMail with a UI that broken all over the place is IMHO not 
acceptable.
If only a few of such UI breakages would remain, that would be ok, but right 
now there are too many, and therefore should be fixed.

I agree about having better criteria for this, especially when it comes to 
priority and severity. Right now, this bug has normal severity and priority, I 
am not sure if that is right.

Right. For some of those bugs, I am not sure if the regression is because of 
the Akonadi port or of the Webkit port, so I didn't bother with two keywords.
