The only valid reason I see for closing a bug as upstream, is when upstream made a decision in the software which is reported as bug by the user. An example of this is excluding evince from the menus by using NoDisplay=True in the .desktop file. This bug is opened now and then, and it's either closed as duplicate of the previous one, or it's closed as upstream. Upstream decided to remove it from the menus because it's a viewer application that can't do anything else than file->open, so let them handle the bugreports for that.
I am always tempted to close nvidia bugs as "upstream", as we can do nothing about them and there is no public bugtracker I know of. But you are right, most of the time we should at least track the bugs even if the are upstream.
