Shouldn't most of these issues be closed (preferrably not by hand), or
doesn't it matter anyhow?



I don't know if there is any rule in place, what closed vs resolved should mean.

If an issue is fixed then it gets set to resolved, this allows the original reporter to add further notes or reopen the issue. So issues should definitely be in resolved state first and for some time.

Currently sometimes closing is left to the reporter, who sometimes is no longer around...

IMHO a rule that mores sense is to close them, when a release is made that contains the fix, that way people who do not follow trunk, will see resolved issues if they search for something.
