for me, a bug tracker is for tracking bug. For an upstream issue, the bug is spotted, reported to the bug tracker, and flagged upstream. Why it'll be closed at this point ? While there no patch to correct the bug, the bug is still here, and need to be tracked. So closing a bug report before resolving the bug is Bad, even if it's an upstream issue. That's how I see bug tracker and I wonder why it's not like this. Am I wrong ?
