Great to hear.

I plan to do it slightly differently -- there will be a "housekeeping" command
running daily that will auto-close bugs that haven't seen any activity for a
defined period (90 days, for example), with a message like:

"This bug is now closed due to inactivity. Please reopen if this issue is
still relevant with the latest kernel version."

I wouldn't, because these aren't bugs and shouldn't be filed in bugzilla. I
would just advise the person who opened the bug where they should send an
email with their ideas and then close with "RESOLVED/MOVED".
