I think the difference of opinion here is that jd thinks that a bug should be to do with the symptoms, and if the symptoms are still present then the bug should be kept open. Marc believes a bug should correspond with a bugfix, and once there is at least one verified bugfix the bug should be closed so we can move on.

I'd side with jd on this, I think the conflict here is that there needs to be more bugfixes to actually fix the incorrect behaviour (as described by the title, and the original bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg- server/+bug/883319/comments/0
)

If we created another bug report for the same phenomenon, then we'd be throwing away the reports from other people (including me) who commented on this thread. What would we entitle the other bug if not 'xrandr --scale restricts area in which mouse moves' ??

+1 for reopen!
