616453 - Changes to allow addition/removal of descriptions of statuses and resolutions

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Bugzilla-General, enhancement)

Description

[Gervase Markham [:gerv]]

[This bug is to suggest a b.m.o. customization/fix for upstreaming. If it is approved, I will create and attach a proper patch.]

People can add and remove statuses and resolutions, but there's no good way to add and remove the descriptions in the fields.html.tmpl page.cgi page, which describes what the statuses and resolutions are for. I suggest:

a) Hooks to add statuses and resolutions to the relevant <dl>s. 
b) classes on the <dt>s and <dd>s so they can be hidden with CSS for statuses and resolutions which have been removed.

This seems like the right way. The CSS classes should stay the same even if the descriptions change.

Yeah, that looks like a totally good idea.

mkanat: any chance of approving this for 4.0? The patch applies cleanly, and we could really use one of these hooks on b.m.o. (adding resolutions). Also, it would make it cleaner for us to fix bug 620753.

Ah, no, but you can backport it. I don't want to add new CSS classes that are named that generically right before the release; there's always some chance they could cause a regression that we're not aware of.
