Tim, Calvin,
Please enable the voting feature of bugzilla. :)

It should now be enabled. Each user has 3 votes to use; this way I expect
to get a better cross-section of "hot" bugs compared to the stock 1 vote
per person setting.

Great!
Three votes per bug or three votes total?

Total, though you could use all three on one bug if
you wanted to. The
idea of the voting system is to let each user prioritise those bug reports
which affect him/her, and then build an overall consensus on which bugs
really need to be fixed ASAP.
There are a few hundred open reports. If 10 people vote then that is only 30 votes, which
is less than a tenth of the open items. If 50 people vote then that is 150 votes, still
less than half the open items. Something like 10 votes total per person seems appropriate,
or perhaps 3 votes per specified period, such as weekly.

Wine, which is a much larger project in terms of bug reports than TDE,
gives users three votes as well. As the voting system is part of triage,
the numbers you posted above would seem to make sense.
I would be open to increasing the number of votes to 5 per person however.

Bump to five, I guess.
Bumped.
<snip>
Does changing
the bug report status to resolved remove the votes and allow people to use
that newly freed vote for another bug report? Is this process dynamic?
As far as I know, yes. Worst case the user would need to un-vote for the
resolved report to free up his/her vote for a new bug.
