(1) Add a new “Behaves As Designed” option:

This will represent bugs that were filed when the reporter misunderstands a feature, or wants behavior that we have considered, but chosen not to allow.

This would be used instead of the somewhat offensive “WONTFIX” or mildly offensive “INVALID” resolutions we currently use.

I'm surprised we don't already have an appropriate status for this, considering how common it is. Calling this NOTABUG would match at least one other major Bugzilla instance, and is nice and short. Alternatively, we could call it EXPECTED BEHAVIOR. BEHAVES AS DESIGNED seems a bit long.

(2) Add a new “Platform To Resolve” option:

Like Simon, I currently use the existing MOVED status to indicate this ("Moved" to external tracker), although it's not a perfect fit if I simply tell the reporter to report elsewhere (in that case, it really means "needs to be moved"). If we want to add another status for this, we should look for a simpler name.
