Do you really think there is a large number of open tickets which are
no longer applicable?  It seems unlikely to me.

Also, I'd note that biggest difficulty when searching existing tickets
before filing a new one is that it is impossible to _search_ only open
tickets.  (Last time I checked this was an open ticket for redmine - I
haven't checked whether there is a new version which implements it).

BTW, looking at a couple of my closed tickets, it looks like users do
now actually have the power to reopen their closed tickets, which was
a problem in the past.  Do we know if this is working reliably
everywhere now?
