--- Comment #4 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,
I agree on 'NEW' state causing a lot of user confusion. I'm all in for making bug statuses less ambiguous.
The proposal of merging it into one status 'OPENED' will make life very hard for people who want to search for unprocessed bugs.
Why not stay with the current system and be less ambiguous on 'NEW' status? Change 'NEW' to 'CONFIRMED' and keep 'UNCONFIRMED' = initial status. This would allow to query for unprocessed issues, maintaining the status quo.

I don't think there is anything that can/should be done to reflect the actual bug triaging status. Workflows with more statuses and/or keywords (global) and/or tags (private) would make the processes even more complex, confusing and error prone.
Regards
