Threading of bug report comment threads, with individual thread termini
having their own closedness state, branchpoints inheriting the closedness
state of their downstream termini, and the bug as a whole marked as closed
when all termini are closed or when the owner closes it...
... well, I can dream, can't I? Anyway, it's only a bit more than what
threaded newsreaders were doing in 1988.

Apart from the coolness factor, can you give any practical advantages?
What I read from your description is that when you submit a bug report you really can't be
sure about its state. Until it got merged by "upstream".
So reporting bugs becomes more time consuming.
