Moritz, do I understand correctly that what you propose here is that
the default views stay the same as they have been for a long time until
recently (except for the <no-dsa> tag)?

If this is the case, then I agree with you.

Anyway, I personally would like to have a URL to show the issues that
have been shown by default until recently: even if it will no longer be
the default view, I think that it is important to have a URL that shows
the same categories of issues that have been so far shown by default,
for consistency with past data.

For instance, I have a script that fetches those per-release tracker
pages and updates a graphical plot showing per-release numbers of
vulnerabilities vs. time.
I can update the URLs in my script, but I would like to keep data
consistency...
