I assume that if I want to request hot bug
status for a bug I didn’t originate, I open a new [hotbug_request] bug
that references the real bug report. And if/when my request is accepted, you
will either change the prefix on that bug to [hotbug] or open another referencing
bug with that prefix. Is that right?
If the decision is to track open hotbugs
via a referencing bugs, then perhaps, for consistency, even if I originate a bug
report that I want to be hot, I should be required to create the hotbug request
in an external bug report?
If we do this, then I don’t think we
need both the [hotbug] and [hotbug_request] prefix, just [hotbug] will
do. By definition, all [hotbug] reports where the requested target
milestone doesn’t match the target milestone in the referenced bug are in
the “request” state. Just trying to make less work for you,
