I think they should get moved.

I completely agree.  By performing the step you are suggesting at GOLD we establish somewhat of a marker in BZ as to when the issue was filed (vs. rawhide forever)... w/o having to pull up the bug and look at it.

We discussed this a little here too: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2007-November/msg00867.html
