Well, if we have the right to create tickets, shouldn't we be granted the
right to close (at least) ours ? ^^;

I've seen cases where


1) Person A opens a ticket for a problem.
2) Person B tells them a work-around. It might need root access, or something else that we don't want Sage users to require. 3) Person A is happy with the work-around, so would then close the ticket. But really the underlying problem has not been solved.

I've seen the above with a ticket about ATLAS build issues. Someone closed the ticket, even though the underlying reason for the problem has not been resolved.

So I'm not so convinced it is a good idea to let the original person close the ticket.
