The mail from comments soliciting information and getting information
aren't necessarily the concern I was seeing.  Mostly I was seeing
questions of the value of looking at a bug and doing nothing but putting
a comment that says "triaged" and setting the status to ASSIGNED, and
nothing else.  That was the biggest issue.  This is where a keyword can
be set without adding unnecessary comments in the bug, nor changing the
status when the use of status may be disagreed upon.
