Public bug reported: Anybody can change the status of a bug to "Fix released" by accident, yet only some privileged users can revert that to whatever it was before. And most of the time nobody will, because Ubuntu bugs are handled in such an IDIOTIC way (and note that the idiot is by no means the one who erroneously changes the status to "fix released"; the idiocy is in allowing everybody to do that but not to revert it; and in the way those really responsible for handling bug reports generally do it)
