Locking the field would deter gnome-labour on bugzilla. I wouldn't lock
it more than the equivalent of an autoconfirmed level.
Although given that it is defined as how often the Bugmeister will look
at the bug, I don't think other people would be interested on it or even
find it useful.

I would usually call a crash or data lost a blocker (although it could
be downgraded if they affect just one piece -like the installer- or
happens only once in a blue moon).
