As I understand priorities, these are per-package, not per distribution. 
Otherwise a bug that makes e.g. xournal completely unusable would be low 
priority. Instead it must be high priority, it's high in xournal, not in 
ubuntu. Likewise, the "medium" designation for a bug that deadlocks the 
kernel seems a bit wrong also in my opinion. It should be "high" in the 
kernel.

Said this, this bug is being actively worked on, and the priority 
"medium" does not reflect the effort devs are putting in it, which is 
"high" so there is nothing to complain about.
