I really think that for the process of polishing 2.0 from beta to release we 
need a new label for issues.

Bugs like the one below are really important, they might be silly or easy to 
fix, but they leave a bad impression. We want as many people as possible to 
help, but UX failures like this will scare away many users, most won't be as 
helpful as Andy to even report the issue. We as developers know that 2.0 is OK 
because we use it every day, but occasional users who just try 2.0 for the 
first time can't know that.

So not HorribleErrorBlockingEverything but maybe 
HorribleUXQualityBugScaringAwayNormalPeople as label ?
