You can also clone the bug and have one for each version.
Well, maybe some maintainers like that, but my standpoint is: please
don't!
We generally know what releases are affected by a given bug, we'll
just push
the fix everywhere once we have one. Having multiple bugs for the same
issue is annoying. So for stuff I (co)maintain, don't be surprised if I
close your cloned bug as a duplicate and complain about the unnecessary
cloning.
After some searching on "clone a bug", there's little that explains
about what it does wrt the original bug. Does it somehow back-reference
the original bug (maybe the "Depends" field on the F10 bug points to the
rawhide bug?)
It also turned up:

where:
FUDCon Discussion Ideas and Questions
... snip ...
# What if a bug exists against two different supported Fedora
versions?
# Open two bugs (clone)?
# Other?
Does anyone know if there was any follow-up discussion on this topic?
I like to avoid gratuitous creativity and follow best practices.
(Thanks for the comments so far).
I threw that question to the devel-list
(

)
The outcome of that thread will be acted upon on next QA meeting..
