I suspect they want to add a new field because changing bug statuses seems like a massive change. Which it would be. However, not doing it will leave us with two workflow widgets in Bugzilla instead of one, with all the ambiguity that brings. In the long term, I see pain here. If Bugzilla supported per-product workflow that might help. Is it worth investing the BMO-hacking resources for this plan into that?
