While we can hide comment (make the USERDATA) to make a bug public, we
cannot make parts of the bug active or comment zero USERDATA. So it is
not like blueprints.

[aside] Purple added bug task deletion as a means to remove unwanted
access to a bug. Maybe we want to support blueprint deletion too.

Apport is a nightmare. The Ubuntu community is using Lp as a crash
database, then marking user bugs to be duplicates of bugs the user
cannot see. The UI warns that this should not be done. Apport needs
spanking.
