Changing bug status to NEEDINFO from reporter should only be done when 
information contained within the bug is incomplete, and additional 
information from the original submitter is required to confirm the bug 
so could the bug zappers please stop misusing the NEEDINFO flag like 
this and just comment whatever information they want the reporter to 
know on the bug report as it should be...

Haven't you abused and twisted Bugzilla term and usage enough already?
