I think doing a couple things just making the categorization more obvious (a UI thing, really) and doing some (hopefully simple?) inspection of some control group of patches that we know do not introduce any code changes themselves and comparing to another group of patches that we know *do* introduce code changes to Nova, and then seeing if there are a set of E-R issues that consistently appear in *both* groups. That set of E-R issues has a higher likelihood of not being due to Nova, right? We use launchpad's affected projects listings on the elastic recheck page to say what may be causing the bug. Tagging projects to bugs is a manual process, but one that works pretty well. UI: The elastic recheck UI definitely could use some improvements.

I'm not great with UIs either but would a dropdown of the affected projects be helpful and then people can filter on their "favorite" project and then the page is sorted by top offenders as we have today?
There are times when the top bugs are infra issues (pip timeouts for exapmle) so you have to scroll a ways before finding something for your project (nova isn't the only one).
