For a very serious issue that would block either a release, or the release of a feature, relman can mark the tracking flag as "blocking". This is a judgement call by the release owner, based on how severe we think the impact is on users. Any of these might be a release blocker:
* A truly massive crash (with a signature higher in rank in crash-stats than OOM|small)
* A truly massive crash (with a signature higher in rank in crash-stats than OOM|small)
* a major browser/feature functionality bug that affects a large number of users
