Sure. On the other hand, if the bug was linked to the target branch,
then we would already be filtering it out, via BMP.related_bugs.
So Martin could address this by unlinking the bug from the source branch
(since the source branch no longer has the purpose of fixing this bug),
or by linking it to the target branch (since the target branch also
fixes the bug).
