From a user perspective, the distinction should be made clearly in such a way that
we know when the bug will be fixed by a standards update proceedure.
The distinction should be clear in the following senses:
1 - The fix will be released in such a way that a standard update procedure will
patch it. The date of the release for standard updates would be a valuable
information.
2 - The fix is known but will NOT be released for all distributions. What to do
for each distribution should be stated, with something like:
Patch cannot be applied / Patch can be manually applied (howto)
3 - Fix will only be possible in a future distribution.
