I'm not questioning responsibility as much as I'm saying that what you're describing isn't how Wikimedia or MediaWiki development operate. I don't see others aggressively marking tickets resolved/wontfix around here.

Wikimedia is uncommon. :-) And I don't think it's as atypical as you suggest to use common sense and collaboration rather than cheap and weak appeals to authority when making making development decisions. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
