The fixed priority was originaly for things that have been fixed but have
not been officialy (usually by the original packager) fixed. It makes some
degree of sense to mark things that have been fixed as fixed and leave
them in the bug system untill they are packaged.
I get so many dupliaced bug reports it is painfull to manage them all. At
least this way someone who really cares can look at the bug list and find
it is corrected and ask how to get the fixes (from CVS) and hopefully not
report it again.
