Will do. Just now I'm working on debbugs-gnu.el, in order to let it know
these special bugs. A new debbugs release shall appear soon.

OTOH, I don't know whether Eli has a policy when to declare a bug
blocking for a Emacs given release. We should avoid that everybody
declares her own pet bug as release-critical.

admin/release-process speaks only about the "how" of creating / handling
blocking bugs, not about "when".
