It would be possible to separate out bugs that are fixed on one arch, but unfixed on others when viewing a particular distribution; the only thing that people have to be aware of is that it doesn't necessarily mean that those bugs will be fixed automatically... but presumably FTBFS bugs will be filed if they don't. It may also be more useful to indicate whether a bug is actually fixed in a set of distributions/archs with some sort of summary field instead of relying on the categorization to do that... I'll try to think about it over some beer later on today.
