This is true... But you've to admit that there are fixes where it's
just not possible to think a regression... Like an obvious
null-pointer deference fix. That could just make things not to crash
(unless the code path won't lead to somewhere else unwanted, but I'm
thinking to the simplest case).

Ok, that makes sense... However having a pattern to follow and an SRU
bug template also for verifying would help a lot.
In the same way we've for opening an SRU bug.
So I hope the SRU team could update the wiki with such informations.
