+Show or change a bug's severity level.

+If no severity is specified, the current value is printed.  If a severity level
+is specified, it will be assigned to the bug.
+
+Severity levels are:
+wishlist: A feature that could improve usefulness, but not a bug. 
+   minor: The standard bug level.
+ serious: A bug that requires workarounds.
+critical: A bug that prevents some features from working at all.
+   fatal: A bug that makes the package unusable.
