I think I'd prefer that they do be left open.  These are certainly
problems that only exist in the current code, but they are also things
that we'd want to ensure get fixed whenever a new implementation is
tackled.  Leaving them open creates an easily checked todo list of
items that need addressing.  Maybe we should create a new group for
that work effort and assign them to that group.  That way they are
still easily retrievable, but can be moved out of the open state as
well.
