Finding all bugs in a version

[olegos]

Is there a simple way to find all bugs that exist in a certain product version? For example, I'd like to be able to find all bugs in Mantis 1.0.5, which should include all bugs where "Product Version" is 1.0.5, but also the ones where the version is 1.0.4 (and before) that were fixed in 1.0.6 and after. If there isn't a simple way to achieve this, I think there should be.

I think I can get there by using advanced filters, then selecting the version in question and all versions before it in "Product Version", and selecting all versions after it, plus "none", in "Fixed in Version". But this is inadequate, because it requires everyone to know what versions were before/after, and it's very easy to mess up (just try it with Mantis 1.0.5!). This seems to be a simple enough (from a user perspective) question, that a bug tracking system should be able to easily answer.

To properly handle this, I think when adding a new version, there should be a dialog for "inherit open bugs from"...
