New bug handling policy ?

I'm starting to wonder - is there a new policy or a metric on how bugs
are handled in bugzilla ? It seems that there is this eagerness from
the developers to close the issues as soon as they're created - even if
the issue is not confirmed, needs more information, etc. The other
aspect that's somewhat bothersome is developers closing an issue and
telling users that a new issue needs to be filed elsewhere to be looked
at - if it's obvious that something is an issue in the wrong category,
shouldn't the developer (who is familiar w/ the process of the issue
transitions and where the issue should really be) be the person who
creates the new issue, instead of closing the existing one and hoping
that a new issue wouldn't be created in the "proper" category ? 

I appreciate the quick response on issues - it's great to see that
someone is looking at issues soon after they're opened.  At the same
time, it feels a bit harsh when an issue I create is immediately
closed, even if it needs more information .

Maybe I don't understand the states of issues in the netbeans bugzilla
and it's not a big deal when my issue is closed (e.g. when more
information is needed).  This seems like a recent development, but I
might be wrong.
