Bug Description
Setting the status of a bug ticket to Invalid, Opinion, Fix Commited or Fix released should require a comment. Otherwise it's impossible to verify that change later. Quite a few tickets get closed accidentally (possibly by scripts where there is an error in the number). Have a look at bug 425112 for a (not so terribly important) example.
To post a comment you must log in.
That example you give was closed by the bug filer. I rather think that the bug filer at least is entitled to just revoke the ticket they opened ;)
Anyhow, this is a reasonable point to consider, but we need to be careful not to break or diminish usability while adding constraints like this.
