A common mistake is to tag based on personal use. Severity tags relate to the package globally, and the highest severities are treated as "RC" or "Release Candidate", meaning "this bug is so severe that if not solved it is better to not release this package at all".
... fixing this is a planned enhancement for Squeeze+1 ...Is that within our lifetimes?
Synical comments like the above makes me loose interest in discussing further. Please don't do that.
... not a current pressing issue affecting the release of Squeeze.It is current and pressing. Maybe will not affect releases: Debian has been "known insecure" for always... Dirty politics. (I seem now to understand that Debian will not release with outstanding "grave" bugs: that is why they are all "squashed" just in time, whether by actual fix or artifice like #583183.)
