I'm chiming in a little late  in this one, apologies.

Are these classifications for defects.opensolaris.org ?
or
bugster ?
or
something else ?

If they are for d.o.o. I know we discussed this last week with Leo
and Erwann has an action to put together a list of categories that we would
like to see created for the desktop stack.

If this is nothing to do with d.o.o. then ignore me :)
