Dear Andre
This is exactly the problem!
When you grab a bug from the top and critical bugs continuously enter the list -
The minor bugs at the bottom will never get attention.
You make that sound like it where a bad thing.
A bug is critical because it affects man users and/or causes data loss
(and one or the other additional property). Therefore it should be
fixed before minor bugs are fixed.
This is how it should work. If it does not then I see two reasons for it:
- There is not one single sorted list of bugs. Everybody has his or her
own idea of which bug is important and which isn't.
- The way in which bugs are ordered is not good enough. This ordering
is certainly not easy to define and it will be impossible to define it
in a way that makes everybody happy. But if there where one central
list of ordered bugs then we could at least try. And everybody could
help to improve it. With such a list you have to rely on my judgement
or that of other developers.

All good ideas.
I would like to add another one. I am a developer. When I spend time
on fixing bugs then I sometimes wish there where a big list of all open
bugs that are sorted according to importance. I would go down the list
and grab a bug from the top that lies in the area of my expertise
(Impress, UI, Slideshow, Sidebar). Without such a list I have to
prioritize bugs by myself. And if I do that then I use my own judgement
of which bug is important and which is not.

Andre
