If all upstream bugs should be open in Ubuntu then something should
open them (probably, Launchpad automatically).  If, on the other hand,
most bugs shouldn't be open - in particular, if only a small subset of
upstream bugs should be recorded against Ubuntu - then there should be
a way to close a bug that was opened in Ubuntu's bugtracker but which
it has now been decided should not have been reported there.

Would it work to add a status meaning "We're not interested in fixing the bug here specifically, but we'll happily pick up a fix if/when it appears in an upstream release"?

If so, what should the status be called? "Not For Us"? "Won't Fix"? "Won't Fix Here"? Bugs with such a status probably should appear by default in search results, so that (for example) if I encounter the bug in Ubuntu Firefox I can find the bug report even if you've already decided that Ubuntu won't be making a special effort to fix it.
