This is an area where the community can help. Of that query, only about half of them have seen any activity at all this calendar year. We spend *some* time in the triage meeting with old bugs that are still a problem, but bugs where no one is even commenting generally are de facto low priority bugs.
Now, if you see something that you think should be high priority on that list, you should provide your reasoning in comment on one of those bugs. Lots of "+1s" are noisy and useless, but if a bug hasn't seen any activity for a few months, it's useful to provide a reminder about why the bug is still important.

Sometimes the problem is to determine if it is really a bug or a wontfix...
