I don't think it makes sense to use this to indicate a supporter (and
possibly some of their time) has been allocated to deal with the
issue; the list of assigned supporters should be sufficient for that. 
If the list is empty, no supporter has been assigned.

I think "Accepted" should be used to indicate that the issue is real
and still needs to be addressed in some way.  This is independent of
assigning it to one or more specific supporters.
