What is the current recommended practice for "fixed" severity vis-a-vis
"fixed" tag? The page in question reads:
The severity levels are:
[...]
fixed
for bugs that are fixed but should not yet be closed. Bugs fixed by
non-maintainer-uploads have their severity set to fixed.
[...]
The current bug tags are:
[...]
fixed
This bug is fixed or worked around, but there's still an issue that
needs to be resolved. (This will eventually replace the "fixed" severity)
Is the "tag" approach currently recommended? If so, I'd suggest a note in
the "severity" section that "fixed" is deprecated. And the note in the
"tag" section could be more forceful.
