I want to drop bug heat as it is *presented* now. It is misinformative.

As a member of ~launchpad when I visit
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad>, I see 3 community driven bugs
and 7 private bugs. When a member of the community looks at the list, 10
community bugs are shown. One might ask why isn't ~launchpad working on
the ten hottest bugs? We well are, but the bug heat listing cannot show
that. All projects could be working on the hottest bugs reported in Lp,
and we do not know that.
