And this is clear to me, but I totally don't get why one needs to do that, except for automated searches.

This is very helpful especially when you create a search and you can see
at first view in the result list which issue is code related and which
is not.

OK, let's assume that automated searches are important (and they indeed are useful starting points for QA). I can understand that one may want to verify defects and not be distracted by issues about wiki content fixes, or support requests that got answered.

Within this thread the agreemnt seems to be to use RESOLVED - MANAGED or
RESOLVED - DONE. In the meantime I tent to RESOLVED - DONE.

If the aim is to create less confusion, all proposals I've seen have the result of bringing more confusion! So:

- If we have RESOLVED-FIXED for code and RESOLVED-XYZ for non-code then we can remove the "NONE" or "N/A" from target, right? Otherwise we create more useless cases.

- FIXED, MANAGED, DONE are very close in meaning, at least for me. If you want to single out the "nothing to do with code" situation, I recommend that we go for something more explicit, like NOCODE or similar. So RESOLVED-NOCODE would simply mean "resolved without any code being committed". It doesn't have to be "NOCODE", but it should be something that means "nothing to do with code", and DONE does not really convey the right meaning here.
