Risker pointed out marking reports as a duplicate of a WONTFIXed report "without consideration to whether the continued reporting of the same problem from different users should be re-evaluated." This is one thing that the https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/duplicates.cgi?maxrows=25&openonly=0&changedsince=90 duplicates statistics could be used for, but it currently does not display bug resolutions.
Note to myself when creating patch for upcoming 4.4: Only upstream differences between 4.2 and 4.4 version of template/en/default/reports/duplicates-table.html.tmpl are the new license header plus removing the line "[% PROCESS "global/field-descs.none.tmpl" %]".

Lovely. Thanks! Before: Bug # Dupe Count Change in last 90 day(s) Component Severity OS Target Milestone Summary Now: Bug # Dupe Count Change in last 90 day(s) Component Resolution Severity Priority Target Milestone Summary
So we uncovered that the two most duplicated rejected requests are (ex aequo!) the two rather obscure: Bug 9530 13 0 Parser WONTFIX trivial Low --- Section heading anchors shouldn't begin with invalid characters Bug 2760 13 0 Page editing WONTFIX normal Low --- Clarify the "use external editor" preference Where the latter was superseded by killing the preference in question altogether. Big fun!
