This kind of issue comes up for me a lot in @font-your-face, which
interfaces with many remote services. When those services have problems,
people open issues for the module, and they're issues I can't really
resolve.
I handle this by changing the issues (which are generally opened as bug
reports) to support requests, offering the support I can, i.e. a short
explanation, and marking them fixed.
That works well in my experience, so I don't personally see a need for a
new issue status. But if you do, I think the best place to request that
is the project_issue module, in which the statuses are defined:
http://drupalcode.org/project/project_issue.git/blob/refs/heads/6.x-1.x:/issue.inc#l207

"won't" fix it, it's not my fault or problem. But it isn't either that the
module is working as designed -- the issue isn't anything to do with the design of the
module either...
I'll try looking at the webmaster's queue, as this issue is more about the
particular workflow on Drupal, not per se to do with the project module.
Thanks,
