So I'm not a core but I check the severity of the bug and query the review owner
if it is < High.  My rationale is that sometimes bugs are mis-classified,
someone took the time to backport it so it's critical to that person if not
the project.

Note that doesn't mean they'll get in but it facilitates the discussion.
