Discussing this briefly with Robert yesterday, he raises the question of whether we could remove the 'sort by number of affected users' and instead just have a sort by heat (and then presumably fix some bugs in heat). the results are similar and the use case is nearly the same.

(That also raises the interesting tangential idea for me that maybe heat should be _only_ an ordering and never presented as a number - showing a number has various problems reported in other bugs. Then 'affected users' which is a real-world number can be shown as a number.)

Then there are only a couple of things to fix:

 * bug 678090, the affected user count on the bug page should sum across dupes
 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/~/+affectingbugs ought to list duplicates (either the origin or the master)
 * if you are looking at a master bug and you are affected by one of its duplicates, the 'affects me' text ought to take that into account
