Based on that, what severity would be assigned to the following issues?
This somehow lacks the "changes incorrect/unexpected/broken behaviour"
category we hopefully do not have to use that often. Some real-world
examples we can use to sort things out.

Bugs:
-----
MRESOLVER-8
MRESOLVER-9
MNG-5359
MNG-5984
MNG-6114
MNG-6164
MNG-5227 (ModelBuilder part only - resolver does it since years)
MNG-5935
MNG-6135 (bug we discussed to death already)

RFEs:
-----
MNG-4463 (or bug due to lack of support?)
MNG-5527 (or bug due to lack of support?)
MNG-5600 (or bug due to lack of support?)
MNG-5971 (currently a new scope - include)
MNG-5761+MRESOLVER-10 (or bug - current behaviour
unexpected/inconsistent with site)
