If you restrict closing of bug reports:
Who should be allowed to close bug reports? Only the maintainer? Only
DDs? I think both of these options are essentially a non-answer.

An other thing is that taking options away from people for no good
reason isn't usually playing well with the users. At least the current
type of spam problem could be easily averted by closing bugs via
requiering "Closes: " pseudoheader.
