After some searching on "clone a bug", there's little that explains
about what it does wrt the original bug.  Does it somehow back-reference
the original bug (maybe the "Depends" field on the F10 bug points to the
rawhide bug?)

It also turned up:

   FUDCon Discussion Ideas and Questions
        ... snip ...
     #  What if a bug exists against two different supported Fedora versions?
     # Open two bugs (clone)?
     # Other?

Does anyone know if there was any follow-up discussion on this topic?
I like to avoid gratuitous creativity and follow best practices.
(Thanks for the comments so far).
