Drew, does this remain a P1 regression bug?

[Drew Willcoxon :adw]

Hmm, it hasn't been fixed for a few cycles now (my fault, I haven't fixed it), so it seems hard to call it a P1 still. I'll change it to P3 to better reflect reality, but if anyone disagrees, please comment.

Drew, will this get fixed in time for 67 soft freeze (Mar 11)?

Unfortunately not, no

Happy to take a patch for this in 74 or potentially in 73, but I'm marking the bug fix-optional to remove it from weekly triage.
