+1.

And for this reason, I think we should keep the buildpath-related
bugs as well. They should all be 'wishlist' priority anyway, and I
wouldn't like to bet my hat that the usertag metadata is accurate and
comprehensive enough to blindly close them in the first place. (We
only really used the usertags to do some rough-and-ready statistics
on broad issue categories.)


Best wishes,
