-1: If someone opens a ticket, we shouldn't throw it out for the sole
reason that it took us 4.5 years to get to it. (Sure, lots can happen
in 4.5 years, but I don't see any of those mitigating factors here.)

If there isn't a test for this in the repository, we should add one to
avoid regressions. Then we can close the ticket as WFM.
