Bugs for a specific package, may actually require fixes in another package as well to have a complete solution. This is a common task in certain subsystems (ie. compiz and unity tend to require pairs), as well as when a piece of plumbing is changed (set of projects needing recompiles, etc.).
for an existing bug #
to add a new product
inherit priority from existing product.
set status to confirmed by default (unless the existing product status is new).
This will help with the consistency of the bug database and get the priorities closer to being right by default, which will help with prioritization by developers and managers.
