But that doesn't mean that the whole history of the bug so far has to be
hidden.  Simply saying that the issue is now tracked somewhere else and
that you will come back with the result should be enough.

I think we have traditionally been worried about someone _filing_ a bug
in a public place that he has found on secret hardware.

For example, Nokia might pay someone to test MeeGo software on an
upcoming super secret phone model, and the tester then files the bug
he/she finds, dutifully identifying the exact hardware device has has
used. which gived away the existence of that device, it's code name,
some hints about a schedule, maybe some hardware features, etc.
