Magical Rainbow Pooping & Sorting Unicorn that groups all (e.g. anaconda) bugs 
together, and also in some kind of sequence perhaps from…. nevermind. Not going 
to happen. From my limited review experience, most bugs are fairly quickly 
sized up and slotted as blocking or not. A not insignificant minority cause a 
lot of head scratching.

Instead, for now, let me suggest a change to Proposing blocker bugs section of 
this:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process

Current:
To propose a bug as a blocker for a release, mark it as blocking the tracker 
bug for blocker bugs in that release. To do this, enter the alias or bug ID of 
the tracker bug into the Blocks: field in Bugzilla. The aliases for the tracker 
bugs follow a consistent naming scheme. The Alpha tracker will always be called 
FXXAlpha, the Beta tracker will always be called FXXBeta, and the final release 
tracker will always be called FXXBlocker, where XX is the number of the release 
in question. So, to mark a bug as blocking the release of Fedora 18 Beta, you 
would set it to block the bug F18Beta. When proposing a bug as a blocker, you 
should always explicitly state which of the Fedora_Release_Criteria you 
consider it to be infringing (see example).

Revision:
Proposing a bug as a blocker for release involves two requirements: mark the 
bug as blocking the tracker bug for that release, and explicitly state which of 
the Fedora_Release_Criteria you consider it infringes (see example). These 
requirements can be met in a single submission step.

To do this:
        1. Enter the alias or bug ID of the tracker bug into the Blocks: field 
in Bugzilla. The aliases for the tracker bugs follow a consistent naming 
scheme. The Alpha tracker will always be called FXXAlpha, the Beta tracker will 
always be called FXXBeta, and the final release tracker will always be called 
FXXBlocker, where XX is the number of the release in question. e.g. to mark a 
bug as blocking the release of Fedora 18 Beta, you would set Blocks: F18Beta.
        2. Enter a statement in the Additional Comments: field, that includes 
the Fedora_Release_Criterion you consider to be infringed by this bug. At the 
very least, please include of a concise explanation of the operational or user 
experience consequences of this bug.
        3. Click the Save Changes button.


The NTH section on proposing probably needs a similar update.
