Yes, please. I agreethat Wontfixes are perhaps valuables as
documentation, but closing them will not affect that.
As for Unreproducibles, if no additional information has been
forthcoming in a year, its likely that noone is really interested in
pursuing the issue (or perhaps it was fixed somehow and nobody noticed
or reported it).

Yes. There are lots of bugs where there's a consensus that the problem
is real (though sometimes not what the OP reported), and then the
discussion sort of dwindles.
