assuming you meant "resolved" for the second one there :)

anyway, I'd say the use of the "Closed" status is a bit of a grey
area. According to [1] closed should be used once QA or the reporter
has verified that the fix works and the bug is officially dead (ie,
after VERIFIED) - which doesn't really fit with the KDE workflow, so
imho, CLOSED should not be used on bugs.kde.org, and perhaps even
shouldn't be there as an option.
