... would it then not also be great if just that specific info be
removed/replaced/anonymous rather than have the entire issue blocked
away ? This might not always be possible, but in a large number of cases
I'm guessing that it can be done.
Would that also somewhat reduce the number of dupes being filed ?

I agree, people who maintain the Bz's often tend to be the people doing
the work behind it as well, keeping things to as basic a level as
possible for them is good!

Also, once a specific bit of code that has
resolution/workaround/suppression of an issue - the corresponding issue
should be public and available. That does not always happen, and it
would be nice if it did.
