Question: We are in the midst of round of improvements to the bounty system. 

We will be adding the facility for [bounty remarks](https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/102423/can-we-have-a-bounty-remark).

We all agree that having this extra information is useful. The information will no longer be trapped in comments or as an edit to the question and it will help guide the "bounty hunters".

**However**, we also want to force people to choose a top level category and have the remark optional.

What top level bounty categories do you think make sense?

Answer: 
Need to use alternate technology or api/product version.
--------------------------------------------------------

Perhaps the person has a technology restriction or version restriction that they need to work around.
It is self-explanatory.
------------------------

Or "Want to draw attention and the reason why is self-explanatory". Or "The user declines comments".  

This can be followed by a link to the faq, such as [this](https://stackoverflow.com/faq#bounty). The reasons I give are:  

1. the faq already states that the bounty is for better answers or other good answers.  

2. one does want to avoid being judgemental on the already given answers. (example: the given answers are all wrong).  

3. a "better answer" is something hard to quantify-it might be the clarity,content, format, English, poor sources, etc. The reasons for bounty can be multiple. 

Note that this is stronger than the already proposed "Want to draw attention", which could be followed by "why?" inquires from other users.
