Description Igor Stoppa 2015-06-04 18:42:56 UTC 
While reporting a bug for devtools/toolchain, I have to specify the architecture.

In my case it's both x86 and x86_64, but I cannot do it, because it's implemented as dropdown choice.

Simpler way to fix it (from UI perspective) would be to add one extra option for both.

Alternatively, why not changing the dropdown into a set of checkboxes?

We're constrained a bit by bugzilla itself here. Most of us would just file this under "All". We could consider renaming "All" -> "Multiple" though which perhaps more accurately reflects how we use it?
Comment 2 Michael Halstead 2015-06-12 15:05:31 UTC 
Changed from All to Multiple. We cannot make this field a multiselect without breaking the bugzilla database schema. We can add an option for "x86 and x86_64" is that would be useful.

I think this is resolved as much as it can be without schema changes.
