I didn't see any mention of the "Triaged" status which I think could
be a good hint. I always read a bug status with an upstream link and
"Triaged" status as saying "see upstream status", otherwise, the
Ubuntu status is the one to be concerned with. So, if you have a
Triaged Ubuntu bug with an upstream link, you can look at the upstream
status as an indicator of progress. In this way, Launchpad might be
able to be a little smarter in knowing which status you are typically
going to be concerned with. Just a thought.
