What is the purpose of votes for closed bugs anyway? Should they not just get
removed automatically?
On top of the reasons linked to in my previous reply:
- Many of us would probably like to be able to see which bugs they voted
for have recently been fixed.
- Resolving a bug would reset its vote count to zero. And so if it's
reopened, voting would have to start again from scratch.
- As such, an unscrupulous person could remove all votes from a bug just
by marking it resolved.
