Hey Andreas - please don't close this bug. :) The bugs inside the WebCompat::Knowledge Base are used by us to track real-world impact of known core issues. There's tooling on top of this, and we need this bug to stay open for as long as the core issue exists. We use dedicated bugs instead of the core bugs themselves just so that we can change those bugs as we want, without causing noise for the platform engineers.

I've reworded the title so that it's clearer. We'll also properly announce what this is all about once we've made more progress, so that this is less confusing!

and we need this bug to stay open for as long as the core issue exists

Oh, and that was poor wording. Even after a core bug is fixed, we will re-investigate known breakage, and then close it once we're certain that all the issues are fixed (or are certain that the issues have been re-diagnosed properly). Unfortunately, the tooling that alerts us about landed fixes isn't done yet!

Gotcha, sorry. They looked like dupes!
