FWIW, my take on this is that:

There is no hard requirement to have a bug open against an issue in
master. In particular, if you find an issue and have a fix which gets
sent out quickly, there is no point in taking the process overhead of
opening the bug only to close it again.

Equally, if there is a bug found in master and you don't have an
immediate fix, we do prefer to open bugs to ensure the issue does not
get forgotten about.

Cheers,

Richard
