Look, obviously you can't solve all bugs in a single ticket, or you'd
never get anything done.

However, if you've got more than a hundred people who will still have a
problem after a bug is closed, that means there needs to be a new bug
created for it, *by the maintainers*!  Otherwise you're doing the
digital equivalent of sweeping the problem under the rug.

This is how it works on every other ticket system.  No one else closes a
bug and says "hey 100+ users whose problem is not actually fixed ...
your problem is fixed!  And as a result no other fixes ... like the kind
that might actually fix your problem ... will be coming."

You can't just screw over 100+ *reporters* (and who knows how many other
affected people) by guaranteeing they'll never get a fix, or at best by
delaying their fix while you wait for someone to file a new ticket, all
so that you can get one more "fixed bug" on your belt notch.

You clearly understand the issue, you know the technical details, and
you can  create a new ticket in all of two minutes.  Doing so would get
the ball rolling on an actual fix for those 100+ users, instead of
throwing them under the bus.
