That's the eye chart bit of it - part of the problem with 0day
specificially is that a lot of their reports have become quite hard to
read, they've been putting in something that looks a lot like git
annotate output which makes things very wide which causes wrapping
issues (this one is actually a bit better than most now I go look at it
again since it doesn't have that indentation).  Picking obscure
configurations makes it more likely that people won't get round to
figuring out what the issue being reported is since it seems less urgent
and therefore gets pushed further to the back of the queue.  For
something that's cropping up on a wide range of configurations it'd be
good to priorirtize the more prominent ones to mitigate against this.

That'd probably help.
