  I _don't_ care :)

  If a developer cares more than me, he is free to change it. I for sure
won't start a commit war :D

  Thanks for the information. I was going to look at the current
trac situation more closely but it was already late at night.

  I like that and think it should stay that way if possible. It is
simple to explain to developers to look at open tickets. Also I think
it is more encouraging for issue submitters to reopen a closed issue
instead of adding more information to a still opened one.

  To avoid the ambiguity between analyzed/reproduced by developer
vs reporter?

  Anyway I would like to commit this patch series as is. IMHO it
still is an improvement. I will try to continue working on that
document to better reflect current practice afterwards.
