[gentoo-dev] Minor bugzilla annoyance

It's been a minor annoyance for me for a while, but I decided to ask if
something could be done about it.

I'm talking about the way bugzilla is set up: you can't change bugs from
for instance RESOLVED/TEST-REQUEST to RESOLVED/FIXED in one step. You'd 
have to go through reopening the bug.

First, I've been wondering why; does anybody know? And second, I heard
this can be changed; I'd sure like it to, what do others think about
this? And is this a small change? (Wouldn't want to generate a lot of
work because of a minor annoyance)

Regards,
Maurice.

Are you sure?  It certainly used to be possible to do this.

Best regards,
Stu

Exactly the same feeling here. If it's a trivial change I'd like to see
this changed.
