I would like the following situation for changing statusses of issues:

• REPORTERS:
  • allowed to report issues (status NEW)
  • allowed to change status to close/re-open of issues that they have reported
• DEVELOPERS:
  • allowed to change status to resolved of issues that they own (assigned to them)
  • further same rights as REPORTERS.
• MANAGERS:
  • allowed to change status of issues to every allowed status
  • further same rights as DEVELOPERS

My problem is that I cannot give developers the right to resolve issues of their own assigned issues. The only configuration I can reach is that they can set all assigned issues to resolved (also of issues that are assigned to other developers) OR they cannot set any assigned issues to resolved. I cannot configure mantis to allow developers to only change the status of issues that they are responsible for (assigned to).

I think of a new flag something like
[$g_allow_developer_resolved = ON;]
so I can set [$g_update_bug_threshold] and [$g_update_bug_status_threshold] to MANAGER.

The new flag [$g_allow_developer_resolved] allows developers to resolve the bugs they own, after they're marked assigned to them.

This will solve my problem for my situation.
Main reason is that I don't want DEVELOPERS to assign issues to other people, and I don't want that they can change the status of issues that aren't assigned to them. Only the manager is allowed to change statusses, and only the manager is allowed to assign problems to developers.

If this is already possible with the current configuration of release 0.19.0, please explain this to me
