I'm not sure expecting one team to process and escalate all reported
issues scales.  I'd expect the subject matter experts involved with the
testing (devel+qa) to come up with criteria for their "Feature".  When
there is a discrepancy between the two ... that list is taken to a 3rd
party for the Yay/Nay.
