I have no objection in this regard, any contribution/managing process 
that will make usage of the project easier/more attractive for various 
people is welcome. The question will be who will take the work (e.g., 
reviewing, categorization, announcements to devels and community, ...).
Personally, I try not to make a difference between bugs, but just try to 
solve asap, with priority on how common use case is the situation rising 
the bug.

Another question is categorizing 'security bugs' - in my understanding I 
consider such bugs when one can gain access to server or 
steal/compromise data from/on the server. Chasing situations are not in 
this category (IMO).

Cheers
