[webkit-dev] Removing keywords from resolved bugs

[David D. Kilzer]

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.
