If you target a bug to a release, that is the way you can start 
funneling bugs to a specific series. I can start moving them now.

I've also noticed, if you go to a bug that has 'affected' versions (like 
0.12 and 0.14) you'll notice that those series are *not* available for 
targeting to release. If you target a bug for release and submit the bug 
will take the series and list it in its 'affected' list.
