Maybe the correct fix is to start paying attention to votes.
If you choose your project priorities based on internet voting, you're gonna have a bad time.

The word "vote" implies that the act of voting has a direct effect on the outcome, which is clearly not the case here and really shouldn't be. But that's probably the root of a lot of community frustration.

I definitely think that we need a low-friction, community-facing way to express interest in a bug's outcome - maybe a list the only CC's participants on status changes, but not on new comments? - but as it stands voting isn't the right thing.
