My problem with a separate product is that it means you have separate
components as well, and thus a search for the "gdiplus" component
won't show those bugs. Personally, I want to see the bugs in the
components I'm interested in even if they may be specific to
wine-staging. For this reason, I would rather have a keyword (meaning:
might require wine-staging to reproduce).

Some developers may only be interested in bugs they know are in
winehq, or latest winehq. It can certainly be frustrating when you use
latest winehq as a baseline, and you find that the bug only happens in
earlier versions or some derivative. But I feel like retesting can be
(but doesn't always have to be) part of the debugging process, and
bugs can still be useful without that information.
