Summary0000043: Defaults for "Assign To:" and "Change Status To:" buttons should be current values.
DescriptionWhen looking at an existing bug, the default for the "Assign To:" field
is "[Myself]" and the default for the "Change Status To:" field is
"New". It would seem to be better to have the default value shown for
these fields be the current settings instead of the constants that are
in place now.

It is also strange that the "Status" field for some bugs has a value
that is not selectable under the "Change Status To:" button (e.g.,
"Under Review").
Desired ActionChange the default value for the setting under the "Assign To:" button
to be the current value of the "Assigned To" field.

Add the full set of possible values for the "Status" field to the list
of choices under the "Change Status To:" button.

Change the default value for the setting under the "Change Status To:"
button to be the current value of the "Status" field.

If a person changing a bug doesn't have permission to set some of the
possible values, gray out those values (or make them unselectable) if
possible.

Can't really fix this one, everything in the menuing subsystem wants to be "alphabetical". Changing this involves more re-coding of core Mantis than I want to do. I'm hoping a future version of Mantis is going to let me do this.
