Not really sure how useful the Partial state will be. We need an audit trail 
for what portions of a bug are fixed in which specific release number. For 
some bugs, it may be that the original report was too broad and the remaining 
pieces should just be resubmitted as a new ITS, allowing the fixed parts of 
the issue to be closed.

The Active state should make it a bit more obvious what we're working on, vs 
what hasn't been investigated yet. Bugs that remain Open instead of Active 
should raise some alarms.
