This brings me back to my original request. If the person who
fixes the problem also sends a follow-up to the bug report,
then you don't have to act a detective to check if and when
the problem already was solved. Also, it's a good way to get quick
response from the original bug reporter if the solution wasn't
completely satisfactory.
