This to me is not what NEEDINFO is for, I do need more info on a bug
that I can't reproduce and hence is unconfirmed. I may also NEEDINFO for
additional information, but this IMHO is not the primary use case.

There should be NEEDINFO before that. Closing such bugs as INVALID would
frustrate reporters that in fact did not submit an invalid report but an
insufficiently described one. Here NEEDINFO would be the polite way to
say INSUFFICIENT.
