I must say that I do not like the sound of "fixed somewhere" - it sounds too vague - but I understand the intent. Maybe it would be better to write:
"fixed as noted ..." And then expect to find a comment saying in which versions/forks the fix occurs. This is almost like you are doing now except for the distinction between "as noted" and "proposed" (patch attached to the bug report). I don't think William intended 7 different statuses. The parameter can be included as a comment. But I do not see any point in being so cryptic. Regards, Bill Page.
