Sounds like the filed issues should have more comprehensive reproduction steps?

maybe. Don’t know how to build a tool that does that though. Do know how to split verify and close.

The issue's not so much that the originator must verify—bugs aren't getting independently verified at all.

That is a problem, but one that should be solved by good testing processes, IMO.

For instance, verifying fixes to closed issues before releasing. Fixes could clobber each other anyways.

That may or may not belong in the issue workflow, but I don’t think it’s really about the originator.

Sure, I'm not married to the originator verifying; I just want independent verification.
