Since we didn't have the CONFIRMED state at the time we hoped that the
NEW --> ASSIGNED transition might be a similar indication.
What would be the preference for indicating that a bug has been "triaged"?
1) Keyword = "Triaged"
2) CONFIRMED bug state
3) CONFIRMED flag
I believe #3 offers the advantage of being able to set ACLs as to who
can or can't set a particular flag.
In the meantime I'll see what I can find out from our bugilla people.
