It would be much better to have the BTS support this, IMO.
That way we can have different pages for all the different possibilities:
http://bugs.debian.org/netbase?release=stable
Unresolved bugs:
foo
bar (resolved in proposed-updates and potato)
baz (resolved in experimental)
quux (resolved in IPv6 staging area)
Resolved bugs:
[...]
...or something similar. I've got some ideas about how to do this, and a
little bit of code done, fwiw.
Changing dinstall to do the "fixed" thing might be nice in the short term,
but I don't see the rush, personally.

I don't speak for anyone save myself. PGP encrypted mail preferred.
