Generating and maintaining that metadata is likely to be expensive. I  
wonder if search based criteria like "open issues with affects <=  
current.version" is a more sustainable model in the long run. It's  
also consistent with the way we use resolved -- we use them to  
timebox periods we know an issue is open, etc.
