Please don't do that. You are neither on the release team nor, to the
best of my knowledge, consulted anyone on the team about adding those
tags. (If you did, they need re-educating about the use of the tags :-)
)

The emboldened sentences of http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#tags
are highlighted as such intentionally.

Then the setting of wheezy-ignore wasn't just inappropriate, it was also
entirely pointless and incorrect. The BTS knows which versions of
packages are in which suites, and which versions of packages are
affected by which bugs. Bugs which don't affect testing aren't relevant
to the wheezy release to begin with, they don't need to be explicitly
ignored.
