The particular bug I came upon is upstream[1], but could certainly apply within Fedora. I see a few directions that can be taken.
- The hard line approach - CLOSE it and cite the bug writing
Principles page[2], specifically, "One bug per report". (noticeably *absent* from bugs.kde.org)
- Something nicer and, therefore, takes longer...
Thank you for taking the time, blah, blah. In it's current form, this report is unusable, so... (Item 1) is a dup of (link) (Item 2) has been opened as (link to new bz #) ,,, (Item N) such and such.
- One or another variation of 2.
Thoughts?

Not quite following you here is this for a report that has been filled in bugzilla or a report that you found in a upstream bugzilla?
Usually bugs get closed with a link to the report upstream if they have been reported upstream. ( I think that is if the upstream maintainer is not within the Fedora community )
And if i'm not mistaken I think the KDE maintainers that are within the Fedora community wants bugs against KDE in Fedora rather to be filed upstream instead of Red Hat's bugzilla.
Kevin can correct me if i'm mistaken here..
