Assuming you are talking about bug reports vs. fixed metrics, those issue 
records aren't really useful in a new feature / improvement scenario.

The release notes auto-generated from Jira includes everything tagged with the 
fix version (it isn't something you have a custom query for).
 I agree not to mess with the fix version for bugs, but new features / 
improvements that were opened by mistake don't seem like the type of thing to 
keep around within a release's records.
