I think the point is the internal impact.  Presumably it's like a test
blocker, except that it's possible to work around once understood (but
then the time waste has already occurred).

I'm not sure if such bugs are automatically urgent.  It's true that the
fix will quickly pay for itself, but that doesn't really tell us much
about priority and severity of the issue (and the difficulty of the fix
8-).

Thanks,
Florian
