The automated script has no way of knowing the specifics of these bugs; go 
comment 'this still matters' and change them out of NEEDINFO.  The bug triaging 
team is following the best path forward they had decided upon; there is no 
possible way for a scripted bugzilla cleaning tool to decide if all the 
information is there to solve that bug.
