Indeed.

Well, that isn't an Importance, that is a Status, but correct.

Overall the bugs look good, people taking bugs from New to Confirmed
is valuable. I wasn't convinced just from these but I looked at some
more bugs and found plenty of good work including identify packages
and asking for more information and marking as Incomplete.

One criticism I would have is that he doesn't seem to subscribe
himself to the bugs, which at least for marking as Incomplete I think
it is an important step, so you are notified when/if the reporter
replies and can respond appropriately in a timely fashion instead of
hoping someone else comes across it.

Overall +1 if Jonathan agrees to subscribe to non-trivial changes, not
only to more quickly address responses but to learn of mistakes
corrected by other more experienced triagers, which is also valuable.
