Thank you, Tony.

According to [1],

"
The Reported-by tag gives credit to people who find bugs and report them and it
hopefully inspires them to help us again in the future. The tag is intended for
bugs; please do not use it to credit feature requests. The tag should be followed
by a Closes: tag pointing to the report, unless the report is not available on
the web. The Link: tag can be used instead of Closes: if the patch fixes a part
of the issue(s) being reported.
"

So I guess the Closes: tag is fine here.
