I think that is fine.  It's not your responsibility to retest a bug you
no longer care about.  If someone else cares and retests, they ideally
would be able to reopen it, but Bugzilla currently doesn't allow that
( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=573535 ).  If no one
cares, the bug may not be worth fixing.
