I agree with Oliver, the default status should be set to UNCONFIRMED
even if the reporter has canconfirm privileges. IMHO "confirmed" means
"confirmed by some else".
We have a lot of professional QA folks here: They know how to verify
their findings and issues. That's a lot of overhead if someone has to
re-test to confirm a well tested bug.
So we should trust the QA who has 'canconfirm' privileges.
If bug reports were really in a good state, I would not see a problem in
starting in confirmed status. That has worked for a lot of years. But
the problem is, that in recent weeks I have come across many bug
reports, which started in confirmed status but are invalid or duplicate.
Therefor my appeal, to be more careful.
Kind regards
Regina
