Nice To Have.

The process here is
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_nth_bug_process . It's the process
we use to assess and track issues which don't block releases, but are
significant enough that we'd take fixes for them through the Alpha, Beta
and Final freezes. It replaced the old 'tag request' process by which
you just requested a freeze exception ad-hoc and it was evaluated by
releng on a case-by-case basis.
