Really? Then tell them not to. That should not happen, and the fact that
some reporters do this should not stop us from putting these tags (or at
least the tag severity) to good use.

For severity it is obvious when a report is security related, and only
crashes should be marked as "high". That would give you at least three
levels of useful severities.

I would say that if priority stays around it should possibly be used as
a developer only tag.
