I fully agree. In fact, I consider any bug that is closed and marked as 'stalebug' as open.
Also, back in the day there seemed to be a different triage process, and correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that bugs that are marked as being triaged are not auto-closed. At least some very old bugs do not get auto-closed. I know that it is hard to manage the huge back-log of issues. But there seems also hardly any focus on new incoming bugs, they are ignored until they are finally automatically closed, which gives a really bad impression on the overall quality of the projects.
