I think in general that the IntelliJ team select the right things to fix but
if they do that, and don't look at the votes at all, why do then waist time
and the votes on voting?

Some builds ago (644) I looked into the list and counted up:

We have together voted for 421 features/bugs and used 10759 votes on it.
Only 5 out of 497 fixes is something we voted for, and we only used 91 voted
for it.

Now there is more fixes, but none that we voted for. I'm going to save the
rest of my votes for the next EAP. At that time the team properly will have
more time to look at the votes.

Any way... you are right that the top voted issues is not small fixes, but
there is still a lot of simple things that people have voted for.
