Perhaps w= e could suggest that if these rules are broken, all bug reports submitted b= y the reporter will remain private (to reporters) on GitLab: if a maintaine= r decides to fix a reported bug at their discretion, the original reporter = will not be credited in the commit message.

This has turned out to be pretty much infeasible in the cases covered by the proposed policy. [...]
