Meta issues should almost never be closed.

I had planned on tracking all performance issues whether they are import
or minor, and it's not necessarily the list of bugs that I need fixed,
but rather all the bugs that affect performance.

I'm just use to working on Mozilla where you have thousands of bugs that
are performance related and there is no possible way to track them all
short of meta tracking bugs or keywords. The more difficult part is
finding these bugs in all the soup as there is no way to quickly query
for bugs that are performance related. (Unless of course every person
who entered a bug said, "This bug makes performance really bad!")
