right, that seems to be the approach Lubomir took.

I don't see a problem with that approach, to be frank, I can't see any
intrinsic reason why we should prescribe always making the oldest report
the 'original'; it does seem to make more sense to make the most useful
report the 'original'.

Only point to note is that it would definitely be a good thing to fix
Bugzilla to merge the CC lists, I'll file a bug on that. =)
