I agree. I wasn't aware of some of the bug status definitions - I have always 
used ASSIGNED to indicate that I intend fixing it sometime (but not 
necessarily soon). Perhaps some note on the bugzilla page, or a reminder when 
you change a status, would be best - otherwise there will still be lots of 
developers who don't know what the statuses are supposed to mean, or who 
forget.

In light of this, in the meantime people should take the status of many bugs 
with a pinch of salt.
