Details

A policy at GCC is that all bugs must start as UNCONFIRMED, so I edited the bug status workflow to enforce this policy. But I forgot to turn on the "allow UNCONFIRMED" bit for most products. This means I locked Bugzilla for most products, as users couldn't file bugs anymore. And nobody could file a bug to report this problem, for the same reason. :-/ An error should be thrown from editworkflow.cgi if an active (ENTER = 1) product has "allow UNCONFIRMED" disabled and UNCONFIRMED is becoming the only allowed bug status for new bugs. The error message should ask the admin to either set ENTER = 0 for these products, or turn on "allow UNCONFIRMED" first.
