I don't think anyone would really object to that, other than maybe some |
15 |
bug spam. |

Well since they are stuff that's in tree, in theory they should remain |
30 |
open. Till there is an alternative in tree, or fix. Otherwise closing |
31 |
might just cause someone else to file a new bug instead of finding the |
32 |
pre-existing closed one. |
