I think Brian's viewpoint is correct. Teams won't be looking at the 
tracker itself until Final Beta when the first test milestone is 
dropping. That said, bugs are always appreciated. Flocculant is correct 
in pointing out many of the image level bugs cross flavors, so it is a 
good idea to keep in touch when you spot them, and file bugs regardless. 
Bugs remain the common denominator and teams will continue to triage 
them as needed. The defects summary is useful for this:

As always, if you find a critical bug isn't getting attention after some 
time, feel free to raise it. Otherwise, it's best to expect teams to be 
developing at this point in the cycle, and the bug may idle for a bit.
