That would almost NEEDINFO. The only difference between NEEDINFO and
INSUFFICIENT DATA is that one is considered resolved, while the other one isnt
and there is no way to see from the wording that NEEDINFO is the unresolved one
and INSUFFICIENT DATA is the resolved one. Its likely that will lead to
confusion.
