Some bug tracking systems separate the escalation levels into groups, so a
user is forced to pick from one of a subset before the issue can be saved
for the next level. In that short list above, for example, I see
Minor/Feature/Trivial being a category that after chosen, may allow
escalation to the next stage: Text/Tweak/Major.

My logic is flawed when trying to see how Crash and Block would be the next
level.

At this point I would appreciate the fact the labels mean something, and
aren't only arbitrary "cool" names that only the developer would understand.

Do ISO standards care what you use for issue categories and severity? I
thought the only requirement for most certification was a documented process
that could be checked against to ensure it is followed, regardless of how
flawed?
