I totally agree. This idea of removing keywords on resolution makes
no sense to me (and is a loss of useful info). By that logic, why
not delete the whole record from the DB since they are no longer bugs
in the code?

It is useful to know that a fix was for a regression.
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 don't think we should remove any keywords on resolution, unless
whatever they say about the bug is no longer true. A fixed
regression was still a regression, a bug that had a recution still
does. Bugs get reopened sometimes if they are not verified as fix,
or if they pop up again later, it is valuable to save all the
information about them.
