Considering that a bug gets "confirmed" as soon as somebody besides the
bug reporter states that it affects him/her, I think that confirmed bugs
should always be included when looking for untouched bugs. Guess that
page ought to be edited.

If importance has been set, the bug has already been triaged, hasn't it?
But indeed the bug heat can serve as an importance indicator of
untriaged bug reports.
