Package: reportbug
Version: 3.18
Severity: critical

(Severity a tad over-inflated to make a point)

I'm sick of continuously having to downgrade bug severities because
users always over-inflate them.  By definition, a bug is at least
severity important to a user, or otherwise they wouldn't file it.  Or
something.  I don't particularly understand the phenomenon, but I do
wish it would go away.

Please give users only the options normal, minor, and wishlist.  A
clueful enough user can edit the pseudo-header themselves to file higher
severity bugs.  Otherwise, the maintainer can increase the severity at
his or her discretion.
