It is already:
if (defined($pr_data{"Class"}) && $pr_data{"Class"} =~ /^duplicate/o) {
      $resolution = "DUPLICATE";
    } elsif (defined($pr_data{"Class"}) && $pr_data{"Class"} =~ 
/^mistaken/o) {
      $resolution = "INVALID";
   ....

It is already (it's mapped to severity "enhancement").

I accidently did a case sensitive grep for class when i said we ignore 
class completely.
The above cases are, however, the only previous uses until now 
(duplicate/mistaken/enhancement).
