Given that bugs might be opened by people that don't know our procedures, would 
it would maybe make more sense to have new bugs start with no such tag, and then 
we could add a tag indicating that it's been processed?

We could create an automatic workist to track "Stories where ProjectGroup is 
starlingx and Tags is bug and Tags is not new" in order to monitor which new 
bugs need to get assigned a sub-project and release.

Why do we need "stx." prefixes for the tags?  If it's to distinguish 
stories/tasks belonging to StarlingX I think we could skip the prefix and add a 
"ProjectGroup is starlingx" query clause when querying stories/tasks.
