When/where did that happen? > Is a stabilisation an enhancement per se? If all stabilisations are > enhancements, then why isn't Severity set to Normal instead? (What is > an enhanced severity to begin with, Mozilla?) Huh, good point. It makes sense to me that this bug is strictly an enhancement (e.g. more like a feature than like a bug), but that's more a bug type than a severity. >> Priority: Normal > > This is where you probably wanted to set something similar to > Enhancement above, but again you probably shouldn't.
