The discussion yesterday never materialized, so I'll reply here.

This does not answer the question "I want to see all our adapter bugs".

This does not answer the question "I want to see all our hotplug bugs".

I might continue like above, because it's useful for finding dupes, but
also it's nice to flag bugs we're not sure how much we care. If they end
up being flagged, say, DP because gpu switching affects that, it's still
a useful distinction to know it's not your average DP bug.

This does not answer the question "I want to see all our bugs related to
VBT/BIOS screwups".

That is totally irrelevant to the discussion about fields.

Fine.

Don't worry, we can remove them too.
