I think that in many cases ("Regression" and "HasReduction" being two) it doesn't make much sense for resolved bugs to carry keywords ("Regression" from what?).

That said, I had intended to only remove the "Regression" keyword to clean up the "known regressions list", and mistakenly removed all of them.

I'm not sure what the "official" policy on keywords-attached-to- resolved bugs is. My impression was that we generally removed them after resolution. Perhaps it's something which needs to be discussed more generally? Do you have a suggested policy?

I'm not currently on #webkit (not feeling particularly well), but would be happy to discuss this with you or others at a later time.

Is there a reason for removing keywords from Resolved bugs? Is it just so that the Keywords page on Bugzilla will reflect an "accurate" count of unresolved bugs with that keyword, and to make it easier to search for unresolved bugs with that keyword?

In the example below, the comment talked about removing the "Regression" keyword alone, but ended up wiping out every keyword in that bug.

Could we modify the Keywords page to list and query for unresolved bugs? Perhaps provide two columns for each keyword: one of unresolved bugs and one of total bugs?

I'd be happy to provide a patch to Bugzilla to do that if it would stop this keyword removal. Note that others have expressed a displeasure in this removal on #webkit.
