We are having a second conversation about this issue this week as we 
agree that the workflow doesn't work. The issue is that FDO limits your 
ability to go back to UNCONFIRMED which is a problem. If you mark a bug 
as WFM, you are unable to go directly back to UNCONFIRMED - which for me 
is strange, I understand if it's marked as FIXED but WFM shouldn't block 
you from doing UNCONFIRMED again.

Might need to get Tollef involved as well.
