The only option you have is request re-opening of the bug, which, I
guess, would then frustrate the maintainer who closed the bug.

Adding comments to already closed bugs makes sense to me, since the
*discussion* is almost always not over when it's (too hastily?)
closed. Sometimes you want to add comments that strengthens the case
for closing the report, which also means the report will not be
re-opened in the future. Sometimes you need to supply more
information.



It's a BUG TRACKER, not a FORUM. If you really want to keep discussing something further, post it to the mailinglist or the forum. You know, the places that were _made_ for discussion? The right tool for the right job please!
