niche is good. verylowpri suggests that it might not be considered even if
someone produces a fix. All the others (including declined) communicate that a
fix would likely be rejected.
Chris: if you had left the pull request in place, it could have been applied to
either 3.8 or 3.9 with equal ease, and as 3.8 has not yet gone into RC, as long
as the change isn’t drastic it has a high likelihood of being accepted into 3.8
even if it is marked 3.x (most of my recent accepted patches are now in 3.8 and
they were marked 3.x). The marking simply indicates that 3.8 will not be held
up if it isn’t fixed.

“niche” is good and also has the advantage of having a decent parallel in a
famous scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. J (The Knights of “nee”).

I totally agree and “niche” is really quite good. “verylowpri” was also
suggested by Bob that seems to be less pejorative.
This is great. Other suggestions? Any words that people like thus far?

The problem seems to be that the bug is true but it is believed there are not
enough consumers of the fix to justify the effort. All the suggestions so far
seem too pejorative imo. If the fix is of niche interest what about 'niche'.
