For what it's worth (and not to ruin the "silence is consensus" model), the proposed priority scheme sounds fine to me. Traditionally these fields have been mostly ignored by just about everyone (developers included). High priority bugs have many other ways of making themselves high priority; they really don't need help from a drop-down menu, but if you can increase the utility (or perceived utility) of that field, go for it. :-)
Andre has been tasked with curating the list of highest priority bugs so that it makes sense to pay attention to the list.
For the engineers in Platform Engineering, we've been pretty good at paying attention to the priorities of bugs assigned to team members. We've fallen off the wagon when it comes to triaging unassigned issues with the "platformeng" keyword, but that may be something we ask for Andre's help on as well (later)
