Generally, I find that screen-casts which give some indication of when
the mouse is clicked are much easier to follow, and I think it would
be especially useful in this screen-cast since part of what you're
showing is how to use the interface.
On a similar note, it isn't obvious how you reached the list of
comments, although you do mention they are "after this meta-data";
scrolling the window with the mouse would be preferable.

Perhaps add a brief note on when priority is set and by whom?
Maybe a few words on how to create an issue (including that you have
to register to do so) would fit nicely here? I can imagine users
wanting to report a bug (and perhaps check if it has previously been
reported) would look for this info in such a screen-cast.
This is a great idea and the execution is good! Short, clear and to the point :)
This would have saved me (and surely many others) some trial and error
after the switch to roundup...
