(In reply to Michael Gmelin from comment #8)

And yeh, security vulnerabilities are almost always High/Many, unless the
vulnerability is conditional on an option (say a port option or optional or
non-standard configuration). In the security vulnerability case, there's a case
to 'leaning towards' Many/High, independent of the underlying nature, given the
'importance' of that class of issue

The question ultimately however, is less a function of what to label what, but
more about how to label things in a manner that makes it *most* valuable to the
project/developers to optimize limited resources (time/effort), ie; the
principle purpose of 'prioritization'.

In our issue tracking, we make little to no use of prioritization. One
contributor to that I theorize is an aversion to the term given its use in
commercial/PHB settings, along with 'in a project of volunteers you cant have
expectations'.

And unfortunately, those perceptions/mindsets have knock on effects beyond
issue tracking and across the board: degree to which everything committed is
reviewed, testing, code/commit message quality/standards/formatting,
documentation, changelogs, etc.
