We rely on ourselves to determine security and user-data issues
contained in a bug. If user-data cannot be removed from the bug, common
practice it to report a separate bug to track the security issue. This
is the same practice that proprietary projects do now when
partners/customers report bugs that pertain to a security issue because
the relationship with the partner is confidential.
