Public bug reported:

This bug refers to launchpad itself - but I can't select that as a package.
I've been trying to figure out the meaning of the bug status "triaged" for the 
last 20 minutes and it occurs to me that if I'm having this difficulty 
understanding it's meaning, I'm almost certainly not alone. What the hell does 
it mean when a bug is marked as "triaged"? I seem to be seeing "triage" defined 
as the process of sorting patients... right... into what exactly? Does it mean 
"low priority" or simply "I've determined what priority this patient is"? Seems 
to me that it could mean high priority equally as much as low priority. 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage doesn't help - it seems to take 
"triage" to mean "to sort" and doesn't mention "triaged" at all, except for 
"untriaged bugs", which I assume means unsorted bugs - so WHAT is a "triaged" 
bug? Maybe I'm missing some critical English definitions that everyone else 
knows and takes for granted --- but I doubt it. I'm in favour for picking a 
less ambigous term for describing ... whatever this term actually means.
