RE: defect lifecycle diagram - 2 more cases not covered..

I always read the target to indicate prioritization, regardless of its 
state.
Thus a current-draft-targetted editorial bug would ordinarily be serviced 
preferentially over editorial bugs lacking the current draft target 
qualification, all other things equal.
I have no objection if we require target draft to be set when a bug 
transitions into editorial, however I think we must allow target draft to 
be set earlier.
We used target draft (and P1/P2 within a draft) during July for example on 
non-editorial bugs to indicate what order we thought they needed to be 
resolved in, regardless of whether the next immediate step for any given 
bug was to author a proposal, discuss a proposal, or do editorial updates 
once a proposal had been agreed to.
