We have started using the SCRUM (http://www.controlchaos.com/about/) methodology to run our projects. Part of this is to put a ROI on bugs to select them for inclusion in a bug squashing run.

A nice-to-have feature for bugzilla to help this, would be to have a value field for a bug, which could be used to set the value/importanace of a bug. In addition, an ROI field could be generated from value / estimated hours, and this field should be viewable in searches, and sortable.

This way we can easily identify bugs that will be best to spend time on fixing first.

Reproducible: Always

This is a sensible enhancement. It's very project-specific, though, and Bugzilla's aim is to keep the base number of fields low. So it will not be implemented in Bugzilla's core. It can be managed by custom fields, though.
