Maybe the real answer is that there should be bug state for bugs that are
closed without having been fixed:
CLOSED NOTFIXED.
Not judgmental, just factual. And for comments, check the bug.
/me wonders if bugzilla can be tweaked not to allow someone to close a bug
NOTFIXED without adding a comment first...
