This sounds like an excellent idea! I'd love that!

I tend to not rely on them much. The problem with them is that the
reporter often sets this to what he thinks, which is always high of
course. I've had several people changing it back to high when i've
changed it to a lower priority. This, coupled with the fact that its
very hard to classify priority like that makes me just ignore these
fields. Instead I usually rely on blocker/target bug markings for high
priority status, and my own sense of what other bugs are important.
