Occasionally, a bug report comes in and after evaluation, it turns out the behavior or feature are behaving as expected. We then label it as triage/wont-fix. While this is technically correct, and not an uncommon approach among GitHub projects, the tone of it still feels harsh to me. Perhaps we should consider introducing a label for the concept of "this is expected". The label could be either used instead of triage/wont-fix in these cases, or it could be an additional label used in conjunction with wont-fix to elaborate why wont-fix was used.

Thinking about it some more, here are a couple of ideas for potential tag names:

  • triage/not-a-bug
  • triage/expected-behavior

Discussed 2025-02-05: decided "works as expected" is more the sense intended.
