I know that the amd64 team used to use the "STABLE" and "TESTED" 
keywords to indicate that an AT felt it was ok to keyword stable or 
~arch respectively.  I guess that practice went away.  It doesn't work 
so well on bugs with 5 archs CC'ed though.  Maybe we need STABLEAMD64, 
STABLEX86, etc.

As an AT I used to run queries all the time looking for bugs that 
weren't keyworded STABLE/TESTED and which otherwise looked like they 
needed AT attention.  I still check the corresponding developer query 
for stuff keyworded STABLE/TESTED with amd64 CC'ed...

There are definitely some easy ways to improve things that don't require 
code changes...
