Nooo, please let's not do this. Bugs will just get dropped on the floor.

Here's my take :

INVALID - not a bug or not a LyX bug, pilot error etc.
WONTFIX - acknowledged bug to some degree, not worth fixing "on its own"

Any bug that doesn't fit these two should *stay open*

It is easy for those who don't care about bugs that won't be
fixed for the next release to save a named query that filters them out.

If we just close these bugs, there's no point in having the "milestone"
field IMHO

And what about bugs that are real and not a pain in the arse ? they'll
end up staying unfixed - not good
