Jan: I've hit on a new policy when I closed a bunch of things today. For those JIRAs that we decide NOT to close, I'm adding a comment explaining why I didn't close it and/or inviting comment. That has the effect of removing the JIRA from the query you provided and poking anyone still interested in it.
