That's, um, exactly the process we're discussing here. We close all bugs
for a given release when that release goes EOL. (I forget what
resolution is used, it may well be WONTFIX). We send a warning note to
all bugs that will be closed under this process, a short while before
they're closed, so the reporters can check if they exist in a newer
version and bump the report to that version to keep it open, if they
like.
