No, it's a Good Thing; issues where something happens quickly have people 
actively remembering them and so less need to track them in a tracker, 
issues with less activity over time have more use for being tracked.  We 
might decide in some cases that a page in projects/ or on the wiki is a 
better way to track some sorts of feature ideas than the bug database, but 
simply closing without moving elsewhere would be wrong.
