Bug Description
In terms of triage, moving undecided bugs forward is very important:
they might be critical. So for a developer looking at the bug list with
the default sort, they should see:
undecided new/triaged/
critical *
high *
medium *
low *
wishlist *
undecided incomplete-
As this reflects the appropriate order to look at bugs next. (Deciding
on the importance of an undecided *but complete* bug should be pretty
easy).
Having undecided complete bugs at the bottom of the list is a starvation
issue, unless developers consciously think about this and fiddle the
sort orders.

Well, this is true in the aspect that the undecided bugs could be critical but there is a problem, there are so many of them that we can't look through all of them, but I am working on a script that can identify complete or incomplete bugs and then mark the incomplete ones as invalid. We will see how that goes...
