It doesn't seem obnoxious to me.

Indeed, as a user, I actually rather appreciate it when maintainer asks
me to confirm that a bug I reported is fixed -- it gives the impression
that they care about the issue.

Ditto.

In fact, I wouldn't even mind getting an automated message saying "you filed a report against x.y; x.y+1 has just been released, could you please try it and see if it addresses your issue?"
