Hi Everyone,

I'd like to propose we add a new state to the status flags that has the status 
of "?." This flag would be set if someone wants to know what status value of a 
status flag is, but doesn't know what the status is. Here's an example:

I find a bug a Firefox 22 with X feature. I know X feature is enabled in 
Firefox 21 and want to know if Firefox 21 is affected, but haven't tested 
myself to determine if Firefox 21 is affected. In this case, I set the 
status-firefox21 flag to ?.

The goal of introducing this extra state for the status flags is to improve 
querying to determine when a "need to test on X branch" style of request is 
needed. We're hitting a lot of these style of requests on B2G when a bug gets a 
leo+ and needs to be tested also on v1.01. At the same time, QA is wanting to 
separate the bugs specifically asking for testing on another branch that can be 
easily queried on vs. general usage of the qawanted bug.

Thoughts?

Sincerely,
Jason Smith
