Then open a new ticket. Which is exactly what you would do if the ticket

 Because of the social problem that people probably won't fix it, or at 
least not by the next stable release (surely not all such tickets would 
become blockers).  Then we'll have (for instance) some new behavior in Sage 
with an annoying bug that it totally reproducible but not taken care of, 
instead of just not having that in Sage at all, buggy or no.

That said, now that I see part of the problem is not just people changing 
tickets, but changing *branches* and *keeping* positive review (or 
something analogous to this), I agree that is a different situation.  So, 
here's my possibly buggy suggestion:

* If you actually HAVE a solution to the problem you see in a positive 
review ticket, then open a new ticket and put it there.
* If not, undo positive review and put to "needs work" and presumably it 
won't get fixed fast enough to matter.  Or if someone gets a fix, they 
could put it on a new ticket.  (?)
