Correct:

AI: add BZ Keyword Security
AI: add BZ Priority urgent
AI: add BZ Priority regression
AI: delete BZ severity translation and move to severity normal
AI: delete BZ severity regression and set Keyword Regression
AI: delete BZ severity security and set Keyword Security

AI: only @redhat.com can set BZ priority
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91306

*** BZ priority was actually changed to be @redhat.com _AND_ people in
the 'fedora_contrib' bugzilla group, not just @redhat.com. ***  Ask Dave
Lawrence (dkl@), Jesse, or somebody else how people in Legacy get into
the fedora-contrib group if they are not there already.

I think in general, just cleanups.  The big danger with bugzilla is
essentially feature-creep.  The "process" doesn't work 100% for
everyone, so everyone wants their own little fields or changes to the
process.  Which of course, doesn't work for everyone.  Lather, rinse,
repeat.
