Yes, closing a bug with the control@bugs.debian.org method is usually
a bad thing, but ITP bugs are special cases because usually the bug
submitter and the one closing the bug is the same person.
If you had forgotten to put in a "Closes: #" for a real bug in your
package, then you should have sent a message to nnnn-done@bugs saying
that the bug was fixed (possibly including the changes file) so the
submitter would get a message.
