One Major advantage is that even if people keep on reporting duplicates
then it will make it easier for those people doing QA in Bugzilla. If
they have a place to go when they think a bug is a duplicate instead of
having to search for or remember the bug numbers[1].

Keeping them around for a while even after they are fixed would be a
good idea since not everyone keeps up with the latest version of wine.
