Besides, as Barry said, classifying a bug as blocker is also a good way to attract some attention on it. Other classifications, even "critical", don't have the same effect.
Unfortunately, not many people have privilege to change bug properties to attract attention to the issues. For example, this patch - http://bugs.python.org/issue7582 is ready to be committed, it is trivial, not a release blocker, but would be nice be released. How to make it evident if nobody except committers is able to add any keywords to the issue? I suspect that even committers do not receive this privilege automatically. -- anatoly t.
