Bug ID: 86867
Summary: New bugzilla comment tag to mark comments as obsolete
or irrelevant
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: web
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: redi at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
Marking a comment with the "spam" tag causes it to be hidden by default (and
locks the comment author's account).
It might be useful to have the hiding behaviour (but not locking the account)
for other reasons. Sometimes a comment is no longer relevant and could be
marked obsolete (like attachments can be). More commonly, a comment is simply
added to the wrong bug (often followed by a "sorry, please ignore" comment).
We could either have separate "obsolete" and "offtopic" tags, or maybe just
"hidden" which can serve both purposes.
Ideally any comment author would be able to tag their own comments, but it
would also be OK if only @gcc.gnu.org accounts can add the tags.
