Launchpad's Bug Tracker allows you to create ad-hoc groups of bugs with tagging.

In the Launchpad team, we have a list of agreed tags that we may apply to bugs reported against various aspects of Launchpad itself. By using a standard set of tags, each explained on this page, we can avoid confusion.

bradb

We should use malone's importance, milestone and release features to address priority of bugs
