On the topic of bugs that can be readily closed (literally), I've recently
come across a number of issues which appear to be sitting in a patch or
review stage, but their patches have been committed and the issue remains
open. What is the best course of action there? I'd just go ahead and close
the issue myself but I don't have tracker privileges.

I'm willing to help out with another Daniel Diniz-esque triage sweep if that
would help.
