Its also worth pointing out VERIFIED status annoyingly restricts a
package, and so any incorrect usage makes things worse.

Because you can't move an issue from VERIFIED back to CONFIRMED.

You instead have to move it to either RESOLVED or UNCONFIRMED, despite
neither of those being what you want.

( And that of course produces more bugspam )
