But then the bug should be NEW, nobody is checking for a bug that is marked
LATER. I mentioned WORKSFORME because i suspect that some of the LATER bugs
have been resolved by now.

If you suspect that a bug has been fixed or is now invalid, then ask
that question in the bug.

prioritization. When I do searches across all the open bugs,

I agree, currently the LATER acts as a blackhole and there is no structured
process to re-evaluate these kind of bugs.
I have done a lot of reading of these bugs and many were filed 3 to 5 years
ago, I think it's better to say WONTFIX then to suggest that this is
something that is going to be

Since I'm usually thinking about priority of bugs, I'm not sure why I
