I don't mind as I don't have the time to follow upstreams that closely 
for the hundreds of Java packages out there.

I think the best approach is to discourage them from filing the bump 
requests in before a week or so has passed but assign the bug to the 
maintainer. Closing it has the problem that I doubt most users remember 
to check for closed bugs when filing bump requests so this will lead to 
more bump requests bugs being filed on the same version.
