But you agree that it says *something*, which is better than nothing. It's some kind of acknowledgement to the submitter that the report was reviewed by someone and not just lost in the shuffle. Paulo's observation that "often bug submitters attach way too much importance to the status change". I can't speak for everyone, but it sounds like bug submitters eventually become curious about the status of their submissions, after enough time passes.
