Yes, distributing these landings over time may make their bugs more
tractable (if not less in number). Still, there are reasons behind every
bug, and if these reasons are not attacked (by collecting and executing
best practices), inevitably more bugs with the same reasons will crop up.

ps. A great idea, your link to bugzilla
(http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=RESOLVED&email1=&emailtype1=substring&emailassigned_to1=1&email2=&emailtype2=substring&emailreporter2=1&bugidtype=include&bug_id=&changedin=1&votes=&chfield=%5BBug+creation%5D&chfieldfrom=&chfieldto=Now&chfieldvalue=&product=Browser&product=MailNews&short_desc=&short_desc_type=substring&long_desc=&long_desc_type=substring&bug_file_loc=&bug_file_loc_type=substring&status_whiteboard=&status_whiteboard_type=substring&keywords=&keywords_type=anywords&field0-0-0=noop&type0-0-0=noop&value0-0-0=&cmdtype=doit&newqueryname=&order=Reuse+same+sort+as+last+time)
Maybe Asa could put it on the http://www.mozillazine.org/build_comments/
page to augment the build comments!
