I would say that it depends on how often someone is likely to
hit the issue, and what the possible workarounds are.

More importantly, though, is anyone working on this issue as
we speak? For every blocking issue, there should be an assignee
who's taking charge of getting the issue fixed. Otherwise, we cannot
get updates on the issue, nor be sure that it'll get fixed in
a reasonable amount of time.
