This makes sense for the case of a bug with multiple bug tasks (although a lot of these cases could be better handled if we could transmogrify a product bug task into a distro bug task or vice versa).
But what about the case of a bug with a single bug task that has been marked rejected, but the reporter disputes this? No one will see any comments they add to the bug, which would be bad.
So maybe a good rule of thumb would be to only eliminate the initial bug contact for rejected bug tasks if there are other non-rejected bug tasks. How does that sound?
