I agree that Importance is something that only selected individuals should be
able to change. That prevents the reporter changing the importance
trying to "FIX ME FIX ME FIX ME! I'M A IMPORTANT BUG" thing.

I don't see lots of people changing the bug status trying to get more
attention or abusing the system. Do you see this kind of behaviour in Ubuntu
bugs?
