So there would need to be a flag for each supported release? 
Not sure if bugzilla can handle that. I seem to remember that the
number of flags that can exist was limited. 

If however it can do this that might be a nice way to track things... 

Also, it would be nice if we added an alias for the CVE for a bug... so
we could go to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/CVE-2007-NNNNN and get the
bug. 

There was discussion about having someone from the security team ack
'Security' marked bugs in bodhi before they are pushed out. If we get
that in place, we could just have that person close the bug, rather
than have bodhi do so.
