Difficult to draw the line: Which issues need verification, which don't? Also, having seen a lot of misunderstandings ("Oh! I though you meant *this* button, but now I see you meant *that* one!"), I think it is a good idea that somebody who did not fix the issue verifies it. And the CWS is the the best place for this verification, I'd say. Also, IMO good QA engineers tend to not only blindly verify the concrete issue is fixed, but think about what they saw and did. Sometimes, this leads to additional issues, or discussions whether the new behaviour is really intended and Good (TM), and so on. At least this is my experience with DBA's QA, and I would not like to miss that, since it finally also improves the product.
